Yes, the movie is still in the works. And, no — Studio Khara has not forgotten about you all.

For those of you who need a quick refresher, this new movie isn’t exactly Neon Genesis Evangelion. It is the fourth and final part of a series called Rebuild of Evangelion. The franchise kicked off in September 2007 under mastermind Hideaki Anno. With three films under its belt, Rebuild of Evangelion gives an updated take on the classic mecha title, and its final movie is meant to give the series an all-new ending. So, you can see why fans have been eagerly awaiting the debut of Evangelion: 3.0+1.0.

For now, there is no word on when the fourth movie will go live. The last release in the franchise went out in November 2012, so at least six years will separate the third and fourth films. The upcoming movie was once set for a 2015 release, but it was delayed indefinitely after Anno was brought in to work on Shin Godzilla in 2016. Now, it seems the writer is ready to finish Rebuild of Evangelion, and fans are eager to see how the series comes to a close.
