    Synopsis: A new Lupin III TV series is scheduled to premiere in Spring 2015 according to a MIPCOM event in Cannes, France. Lupin will be starring as the main character in this upcoming series set to take place in Italy and San Marino. Reflecting its setting, the Anime will debut in Italy before airing in Japan. Lupin III fans will note that the titular thief now has a blue coat, following his earlier appearances in green (first series and some OVAs), red (the second series as well as most films and television specials) or pink (third series).

    The film will be a continuation spinoff of the 2012 "Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine" television Anime series. Lupin and Jigen have their sights set on a treasure worth stealing called the Little Comet which is located in the country of East Doroa. The country has fortified its border after a singer named Queen Malta got assassinated in the neighboring country of West Doroa upon visit. Despite the two countries being enemies, Lupin and Jigen still plan to steal the treasure. During the heist, Jigen almost got killed by a skilled sniper named Yael Okuzaki. His specialty is preparing tombstones for his targets before executing his kills. Its said that no one has survived after Yael makes a grave for that target. The live action film focuses on how the series' main characters met for the first time and will reportedly update the franchise to a contemporary setting. Lupin and friends infiltrate a highly secured fortress-like safe named "Ark of Navarone" (ナヴァロンの箱舟) to claim the "Crimson Heart of Cleopatra" (クリムゾンハート・オブ・クレオパトラ).
