Ave Mujica: Prima Aurora has revealed its second trailer as the film reaches Japanese cinemas, with a 2027 sequel anime also confirmed.
Ave Mujica: Prima Aurora has revealed its second trailer as the new film reaches Japanese cinemas. The latest preview gives another look at the dramatic stage and character-driven story continuing the BanG Dream! spin-off, while confirming that the theatrical project is now playing in Japan. 1
The film follows Ave Mujica, the band at the centre of the anime's darker second act. The published cast list includes Kanon Takao as Sakiko Togawa/Oblivionis, Yuzuki Watase as Mutsumi Wakaba/Mortis, Rico Sasaki as Uika Misumi/Doloris, Akane Yonezawa as Nyamu Yutenji/Amoris and Mei Okada as Umiri Yahata/Timoris. 1
The new trailer comes from the official BanG Dream! channel and presents the film as a continuation of the band's theatrical story rather than a recap of the television series. Its central image is a close-up of a pale-haired character, surrounded by the bright, polished visual style associated with the Ave Mujica project. 2
Studio Nichicaline, which also worked on BanG Dream! Yume∞Mita, is animating the movie. The wider BanG Dream! Ave Mujica anime debuted in January 2025, with Sanzigen handling the television animation under director Kodai Kakimoto. 1
A sequel television anime has also been announced for January 2027, giving the franchise a clear route back to the small screen after the film's theatrical run. For now, the second trailer is the immediate development: it expands the movie's promotional campaign and gives fans another official glimpse at the band before any wider release details are confirmed. 1
Our opinion
The trailer is doing the useful job a second preview should: it sells the film's mood without pretending that the theatrical story is a simple reset. The combination of a new cinema release, a returning cast and a confirmed 2027 sequel makes this look like a proper next chapter for Ave Mujica, not a disposable side project. International release information is still the missing piece, so overseas fans should treat the Japanese cinema date as the only confirmed availability for now.
