Director Kenji Kamiya talks about the film

Director Kenji Kamiya talked about the upcoming film and the ideas that are included in this new animated project after introducing the character Helm Hammerhand.

He said, "This is the story of the most powerful king in Rohan's history, someone who defeated his enemies with his bare fists. Why did his lineage have to end with him?"

He continued as per Pinkvilla, "I think there is a lesson in hubris there and also for a need for responsibility and awareness in their power. We live in an age where, all over the world, we face the reality of war again. What, then, is power? What is the responsibility of those who possess it? It is something they need to think about by thinking together with those who don't."?
