At the end of July Production IG, a major animation company in Japan, held a special event to debut their new film “Loups-Garous.” Attendees were given quite a surprise as it was announced that the main theme for the movie would be by girl rock group SCANDAL and that the band was in attendance at the event.

The girl band rocked the stage at the event and announced that they will be helping with some other promotional showings of the film. Tickets will go on sale for these on July 24th. Regular release of the film will be on August 28th nationwide. To further mix in SCANDAL with the film release, the band will be releasing a special DVD/blu-ray the day before the film hits theaters. It will be called “Loups-Garous #Overture” and will feature a chorus audition video. It will be made in extremely limited quantities so reservations are being taken on the sale of the DVDs and blu-rays.

SCANDAL will be providing multiple songs for the Loups-Garous movie, an opening and ending theme and also a song for the middle of the film. Not only that, but the girl group will also be animated into the film through motion capture and will even have dialogue.

The first event with the band will be held on July 29th in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Guests for the screening will be SCANDAL, the original book’s author, and the director of the film.
