The panel, titled “SOUND & FURY: Creators of Animatrix and Batman Ninja Unite for Sturgill Simpson,” will find Simpson accompanied by manga artist Takashi Okazaki (Afro Samurai) and filmmaker Junpei Mizusaki (Batman Ninja) to discuss Sound & Fury, their new film that “merges American rock music with anime in a way never seen before,” according to a press release. The panel will also include the premiere of the film’s 90-second trailer. It takes place Saturday, July 20.
Sturgill Simpson recently contributed the title song to Jim Jarmusch’s new movie The Dead Don’t Die. He also appears in Queen & Slim, a new film written and produced by Lena Waithe.
