About a month ago we had rumors that a new Evangelion project, called Khara, was brewing. And now the cover’s been blown! The October issue of Newtype (Japan) 4 new Evangelion movies are already in the works. The four films fit the series as a prequel, a mid-series movie a sequel and a final one.

The prequel is already in production and set for release in summer 2007. The rest of the movies are set during the same time frame as the series, although its mentioned that you wont need to know anything about Evangelion to understand them. Which is kind of unsettling, it might even clue on the fact that it does not revolve around the classic characters.

Hideaki Anno will write the first movie and direct the entire project. No info was given as to who will write the rest of the films. And what was that Khara project after all? Khara is the name of the new studio working along Gainax for this project.

So much for ‘The end of Evangelion’. I foresee many more years of ‘teh rei’ and emo Shinji jokes, blessed be the internets.
