Goro Miyazaki, son of Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke), is directing an animated version of the Tales of Earthseas. Not sure if he's focusing on mearly the first book of the searies, written by Ursula K. Le Guin, or combing multiple books like Sci Fi did in thier awful live action film last year.
Never seen anything by Goro Miyazaki, but if he's anything like his father the movie should be good. The film will be released by Studio Ghibli and will be released in July in Japan.
