“Bones and Toho are already working on new seasons of the anime nonstop, so I was really surprised when they told me there would be a new movie. I couldn't help but think back to my childhood, when a new Dragon Ball movie was released every year.
“Those made me so excited that I remember sitting in the movie theatre with my heart racing like crazy. So I hope the new generation of kids around the world can enjoy this movie just as much as me back then.”
Horikoshi, who also wrote Oumagadoki Zoo and Barrage, also teased details of the plot, confirming that the action will take place after the events of the sixth season.

“It'll take place after the War from Season 6, meaning that the collapsed society will be the stage this time. After having been through so much and learning so many things, who will Deku and his friends fight against this time? What will they protect?! Look forward to it!” he teased.
The currently untitled project will be the fourth film in the My Hero Academia series, following the release of Two Heroes, Heroes Rising and World Heroes’ Mission in 2018, 2019 and 2021 respectively.
The next My Hero Academia: The Movie currently has no release date.
