TOHO shared a new teaser trailer for the upcoming Detective Conan: Hyakuman Doru no Michishirube (The Million-Dollar Five Guiding Stars) film on Thursday. The video teased the conflict between Hattori Heiji and Kaito Kid.
The 27th film in the Detective Conan franchise debuts in Japan on April 12, 2024.
The plot of the film involves Kaito Kid attempting to steal a one million dollar "big jewel" in Hakodate, Japan, as well as a possible confession between Heiji and his childhood friend Kazuha.
Detective Conan: Kurogane no Submarine (Iron Submarine), the 26th film, opened in Japan on April 14 (two weeks before the official Golden Week holidays), and sold 2.17 million tickets to earn about 3.14 billion yen (about US$23.4 million) in its first three days, making it the best three-day opening for the franchise. The film is the first in the franchise to earn more than 10 billion yen.
The film sold 9.26 million tickets for 13.12 billion yen (about US$91.7 million) by June, surpassing Jurassic Park to become the 25th highest-earning film of all time in Japan. It has since become the 19th highest-earning film of all time in Japan, and the #2 film of the year so far in Japan, below only The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Aoyama launched the manga in 1994. The manga has spawned a television anime that has been running since 1996, as well as an accompanying anime film series. The 26th film in the series, Detective Conan: Kurogane no Submarine (Iron Submarine), opened in Japan on April 14.
