A movie starring Sanrio character Kuromi has been announced. It’s set for a 2027 release in Japan, while overseas release details “will be announced once confirmed.”
An announcement visual and video provide an indication on how the upcoming film will look like:

Kuromi was introduced in 2005 as the rival of fellow rabbit My Melody. The character was recently featured in the 2025 stop-motion anime series My Melody & Kuromi and placed fourth in the 2026 Sanrio character ranking (My Melody was seventh).
Says her official profile: “Although she may look tough, she is actually very girly and is attracted to good-looking guys! Her signature look is her black hood with a pink skull on the front. Her favorite color is black. She’s working hard to turn the whole world black!”
