New Movie “Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery” Comes to HIDIVE
North American Premiere of the Highly Anticipated Film Based on Akihito Tsukushi's “Made in Abyss” to Screen on December 5 at Anime Frontier Ahead of 2027 Release
HOUSTON, TX — November 10, 2026 — Dark fantasy fans just received welcome news with today's announcement that AMC Global Media's HIDIVE will distribute the highly-anticipated new movie
Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery. The fast growing streaming service is widely regarded as the “Home of the Made in Abyss” and introduced the now beloved anime to audiences outside of Japan for the first time on July 7, 2017 with the premiere of
Made in Abyss Season 1 as part of HIDIVE's inaugural simulcast line-up and service launch. Season 1 garnered tremendous positive reaction from both fans and critics alike and was awarded “Anime of the Year” the following year. Based on the long-running
and globally popular dark fantasy manga series created by Akihito Tsukushi, Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery is the franchise's first new film in six years and follows on the heels of
Made in Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun, the critically acclaimed Season 2 of the episodic series.
Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery recently premiered in Japan on October 23, 2026, earning the movie a Top 10 spot at the box office for its opening weekend. HIDIVE will release
Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery in 2027 and will provide further details at a later date. In celebration of
Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery and its planned release next year, HIDIVE also revealed that it will host the film's North American premiere on December 5 as part of their screening program at this year's Anime Frontier in Fort Worth, TX.
“We're thrilled to be bringing the highly anticipated new movie Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery
to audiences in 2027,” said John Ledford, President of HIDIVE. “This is a major milestone for HIDIVE and will mark a proud decade-long history as not only the international distributor of the Made in Abyss franchise but also as a streaming service — beginning
in July 2017 with Made in Abyss Season 1 as one of HIDIVE's inaugural simulcasts when it launched. Stay tuned for details on next year's release. In the meantime, for those who haven't experienced Made in Abyss, now is the perfect opportunity to check
out the original series. It's truly one of my personal favorites!”
In a world with every corner thoroughly explored, questions lie in await in a deep, vertical hole in the ground known as the Abyss. Now traversing through the Abyss' treacherous sixth layer, Riko, Reg, Nanachi, and Faputa head farther down into the depths.
As Riko continues her search for her long-lost-mother and White Whistle, Lyza, old friends, foes and newcomers alike collide in a brand new adventure and the beginning of a new mystery.
Made in Abyss: Awakening Mystery is the newest film from the anime franchise based on dark fantasy manga written and illustrated by Akihito Tsukushi that launched in October 2012 and currently spans 15 volumes with more than 22 million copies in print
worldwide. The movie is directed by Masayuki Kojima together with screenwriting by Hideyuki Kurata, character design by Yuka Kuroda & Kazuchika Kise and production by Kinema Citrus.
