MANILA – Hello Kitty, one of Japan’s most beloved cartoon characters, will soon get her first Hollywood movie.

Sanrio, New Line Cinema, and FlynnPictureCo have teamed up to develop an English-language feature film for the first time in Hello Kitty’s 45-year history.

This is the first time that Sanrio has granted film rights to Hello Kitty to a major studio.

The partnership also includes other Sanrio characters such as Gudetama, My Melody, and Little Twin Stars, to name a few.
