No New Ghibli Film for 2012

Former Studio Ghibli public relations head, Junichi Nishioka, and the current Ghibli Museum public relations head have both acknowledged that Ghibli will not release a new film for this year.

Nishioka mentioned at the Kyōsō Open Forum in Yokohama, Nishioka that co-founders Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata are both working on separate films and both are more than a year from completion.

Nishioka later recapped on Miyazaki's words that Studio Ghibli's finances are riding on Miyazaki's next film, and he said with a laugh that if these films are not finished then Studio Ghibli will fold.
