The Tale of The Princess Kaguya is the latest offering from Studio Ghibli and there is set to be no other animation film like it this year.

This is one of the films that I have been looking forward to for some time as I am huge fan of the animation studio - it is also terrific to see Isao Takahata back in the director's chair.

We are counting down the days until The Tale of The Princess Kaguya hits the big screen, and here is a brand new clip to take a look at:

Takahata is one of the most iconic filmmakers to have worked at Studio Ghibli - he was behind the critically acclaimed Grave of the Fireflies. However, this is his first film for the studio since My Neighbours the Yamadas back in 1999.

Chloë Grace Moretz voices the central character of Princess Kaguya, while James Caan, Darren Criss, Lucy Liu, Beau Bridges, and James Marsden are just some of the other names on board.

The movie is based on the classic folklore tale The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, and follows a young girl who is found in a stalk of bamboo who grows up into a young princess.

The Tale of The Princess Kaguya is released 20th March.
