Team 7 Gets a Green Light

Naruto is greenlit at Lionsgate, with Sony Pictures co-financing the live-action movie. Spider-Man: Brand New Day director Destin Daniel Cretton is set to start filming in spring 2027.

Sony joined after a multi-studio bidding war, and the production start is now narrowed from the first half of 2027 to spring. There is still no cast, but the worldwide search for Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura has been running since July.
