This Will Be The First Live-Action My Hero Academia Movie, But Possibly The Fourth Overall MHA Movie
Now, this statement might not be true depending on when the My Hero Academia live-action movie eventually comes out, but as of right now, this live-action version would be the fourth overall movie since the series debuted in 2016. All the other previous movies have been animated. The first movie, My Hero Academia: Two Heroes, came out in 2018 in Japan and had a limited release in the United States and Canada. Then, you had My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising in 2019, and a North American release in 2020. And finally, the most recent and third film, My Hero Academia: World Heroes’ Mission just recently came out in Japan on August 6, 2021. Some even speculate that we could be looking at an October release date for it to come stateside. So, the live-action movie might or might not be the fourth overall MHA film, but that could always change given the rapid-fire way these movies are coming out in animation.
