In Oshii's first vision of RE: (prior to the demo film), all the 00 cyborgs except 009, 003, and 001 had passed away in the ensuing years, and 009 was holed up in an apartment in retirement while 003 and 001 had taken to traveling the world. Originally, Mamoru Oshii was assigned to the project in 2009, and would later create a short CGI demo film that was screened in September 2010, titled "Cyborg 009: The REopening". We look forward to welcoming director Kenji Kamiyama and producer Tomohiko Ishii to join us for a Q&A following the screening.In re-imagining Cyborg 009 for the year 2012, "RE:" was included in the title, indicating the movie as a sequel to the original manga (taking place 27 years after Ishinomori's last arc in 1986) as well as symbolizing a "restart" for the franchise.
009 Re:Cyborg has had many incarnations since its early days as a manga phenomenon in the 1960s, through to a number of TV series and films, but Kamiyama and Production I.G have created a unique contemporary anime using computer technology but with a hand drawn sensibility. They appear untouched by time, but society around them has changed dramatically, as has the idea of justice and they are forced to confront whether they still have role to play in this new world. The nine heroes gather once again to fight against this faceless menace. In 2013, skyscrapers across the world are hit by bombers with no apparent connection. But as their struggle finally restores world peace, they eventually disappear from the pages of history and from people's memory. They rebel and start to fight against their creators in the name of justice. In 1964, nine regular humans from different parts of the world are abducted and transformed into cyborgs with astounding powers for the purpose of being used as weapons. With voices of Mamoru Miyano, Daisuke Ono, Chiwa Salto
