The moon has begun moving closer to Earth! As it is, the moon will crumble and meteorites will rain down on Earth's surface. As the last days of Earth approach, Hanabi Hyūga is abducted by a mysterious man in Konoha, and Naruto, Sakura, Sai, Shikamaru, and Hinata set off on a rescue mission! Can Naruto and the others overcome this crisis?
The film debuted in Japan on December 6 as the first Naruto film in two years. Madman Entertainment will open the film in cinemas in Australia and New Zealand on January 17.
Manga creator Masashi Kishimoto is credited with the original story, character designs, and chief story supervisor of the film.
