It was revealed as part of an event in November 2018 that several new Gundam projects are coming up as part of the focus on the Universal Century timeline. One of those was the Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway’s Flash feature film, which is being done as a movie trilogy that’s based on the 1989 novel trilogy from Yoshiyuki Tomino.
The first film landed in Japan in 2021 and was later that year a Netflix exclusive outside of Asia, which arrived on July 1st, 2021. It was slotted with eight different languages and thirty subtitle options to achieve the widest reach possible. Going under the name Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph, the second film debuted with a January 30th, 2026, premiere date. That’s getting ready for a US theatrical release, as it’s scheduled for May 15th, 2026.
With that in mind, the production has now brought out a brief promo for the US premiere, with it presented as a message from another recent very popular project.

Property Concept: U.C.105, thirteen years after the Second Neo Zeon War, the Earth Federation accepts the Republic of Zeon back in the fold. However, over the next few years, the Federation uses its powers to find undesirables around the world and deport them to the space colonies. A terrorist organization called Mufti, led by Bright Noa’s son Hathaway Noa and going under the alias Mufti Nabiyu Erin is still haunted upon his past actions and the death of Quess Paraya. He started his terrorist actions against the Federation and its high officials in act of revenge, using the new prototype unit, the RX-105 Ξ Gundam. In response, the Earth Federation Space Force assembles the Circe Unit, led by Lane Aime piloting the RX-104FF Penelope in order to stop Mufti and his group.
