MonkeyQuest animated scene

Lionsgate just locked in a deal to bring TOEI movies straight into US theaters, marking another push by Japanese studios for direct BoxOffice exposure after moves with TOHO and Nintendo. The first title under this new partnership is MonkeyQuest, which stands as TOEI's largest CGI animated project ever made. It adapts the online game of the same name and features an American dub starring AuliiCravalho, AdamDeVine, ElsieFisher, JKSimmons, and SamRichardson. Beyond simple distribution, the agreement opens doors for potential co-productions between the two companies, with Lionsgate holding first-look rights on those projects, a setup that mirrors how Nintendo has previously partnered with Universal and Sony.
