This June, VIZ Media has partnered with Fathom Entertainment to bring the first three episodes of BLEACH: Thousand‑Year Blood War – The Calamity to theatres across the United States for a limited screening event running June 25th–29th, 2026.
The episodes are presented in both subtitled and English‑dubbed formats, along with a special interview featuring creator Tite Kubo, chief series director Tomohisa Taguchi, and series director Hikaru Murata.

BLEACH: Thousand‑Year Blood War – The Calamity adapts the final arc of Tite Kubo’s Bleach manga. The anime returned in 2022 after the original series aired from October 2004 to March 2012.
I’ve reached out to VIZ Media to ask whether Canadian theatres will also screen these episodes, and I’ll update the article once I receive a response.
The final arc, BLEACH: Thousand‑Year Blood War – The Calamity, is scheduled to air in July 2026 and will stream on Disney+ in Canada and internationally, and on Hulu in the United States.
