Studio Ghibli: Netflix buys rights to iconic animated films
It means new people will be introduced to “the ultimate escapism” of Studio Ghibli’s films – up until now they’ve only been available on DVD or illegally.
Some of its most famous films include
the Oscar-winning Spirited Away,
My Neighbour Totoro,
Howl’s Moving Castle.
“It will really give people the chance to enjoy a lot of classics that they may not know about but are famous in the anime world,” says Sarah Taylor,
whose heart has “been with Ghibli” since she was 16 years old.

In fact, the decision to distribute Ghibli works to the Internet is reported for the second time after the US “HBO MAX” in October 2019.
HBO MAX is already scheduled for distribution this spring.
The fact that the United States is not included in Netflix’s distribution area is due to this contract with HBO MAX.
