The English dub stars:
- Amanda C. Miller as Boruto
- Cherami Leigh as Sarada
- Robbie Daymond as Mitsuki
The film opened in Japan in August 2015, and is the top grossing Naruto film of all time in Japan. Viz Media screened the film in the United States in Canada in October 2015. Viz describes the story of the film:
In Boruto: Naruto the Movie, famed ninja, Naruto Uzumaki protects the Hidden Leaf Village as the Seventh Hokage, while Boruto, his troublesome son, resents his father's responsibilities that take his time away from him. Seeing this, Sasuke takes Boruto under his wing, while Sasuke's only daughter, Sarada, dreams of being Hokage one day.
With Naruto as the Seventh Hokage, the Hidden Leaf Village plans to host the Chunin Exams to train new shinobi from the village and from their allied villages. Among the entrants are Sasuke's daughter, Sarada, Mitsuki, an exceptionally talented yet mysterious shinobi… and Boruto, Naruto's talented but impetuous son. Meanwhile, Sasuke who's been on a mission in another dimension appears before Naruto to warn of a strange impending danger. Shrouded with an evil aura, Momoshiki and Kinshiki appear and attempt to assassinate Naruto. Petrified, Boruto is shielded by Naruto, only to disappear in front of Boruto's own eyes!
The character of Boruto is getting a new television anime series titled Boruto: Naruto Next Generations that will premiere in April on TV Tokyo. The anime will feature an original story.
