Yuya Yagira‘s ‘Gannibal’ Season 2 to be released exclusively on Disney+ on March 19th

The second season of the Disney+ original series ‘Gannibal’ has been confirmed to be released on March 19th.

In the previous season, it deeply dealt with the story of ‘Daigo Agawa’ (Yuya Yagira), who is assigned to a rural village as a police officer, and uncovers a shocking secret hidden in the village, and it was well-received for its delicate depiction of human collective egoism and madness. The returning ‘Gannibal’ season 2 features even greater thrills and a more solid story, as well as the revelation of the human-eating monster at the center of the secret, and the desperate journey of ‘Agawa Daigo’ as they jump into the life-risking investigation to confront it.

The main poster introduced along with the news of the confirmed release date catches the eye with its cruel depiction of ‘Agawa Daigo’ and Kuge Village. The intense copy, “I will end everything”, and the horrific sight of everything burning down heightens the tension by revealing the hidden truth of Kuge Village hiding its past, and the fact that the time to break the curse that has covered the entire village has finally come. In particular, the gaze of ‘Agawa Daigo’ in the poster shows that he, a former ordinary police officer, will awaken the darkness within him that has been maximized after facing the town’s mysterious secret and past, and stimulates curiosity about the inevitable fate he will face in season 2, which has returned.

‘Gannibal’ season 2 will be starring Yuya Yagira, who received worldwide acclaim for winning the youngest-ever Cannes Film Festival Best Actor Award for his debut work ‘Nobody Knows’, as the main character ‘Agawa Daigo’. He will once again showcase his meticulous and dense acting skills that will overwhelm the public. Also, actor Sho Kasamatsu, who captivated everyone with his mysterious presence as ‘Keisuke Goto’, the new head of the ‘Goto Clan’, has joined the cast again. Here, director Shinzo Katayama, who participated as an assistant director in director Bong Joon-ho‘s ‘Tokyo!’, ‘Mother’, and showed solid storytelling through the film ‘Missing’, has taken on the directing role for ‘Gannibal’ Season 2, following last season.

Disney+ original series ‘Gannibal’ Season 2 will be available exclusively on Disney+ on March 19.
