But a chain of grisly killings has cast a bloody pall of uncertainty over its residents, especially Josuke Higashikata, a high schooler with offbeat hair and even more eccentric abilities. Now, with his grandfather on Morioh’s homicide list, Josuke must resort to his surreal “Stand” powers if he ever hopes to heal his beloved family and town. Josuke may have a Stand-wielding relative at his side, but the killer has plenty of help too.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Is Unbreakable – Chapter 1 is a 2017 Japanese action fantasy film directed by Takashi Miike from a screenplay by Itaru Era. It is based on the Diamond Is Unbreakable story arc of the manga series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure by Hirohiko Araki. Covering the first seventeen chapters, the film stars Kento Yamazaki, Ryunosuke Kamiki, Nana Komatsu, Masaki Okada, Mackenyu Arata, Takayuki Yamada and Yusuke Iseya. It was released in Japan by Toho and Warner Bros. Pictures on August 4, 2017. It was licensed for North American release by Viz Media.

Production

In September 2016, it was announced that Toho and Warner Bros. were partnering to produce a live-action film based on the fourth arc of Hirohiko Araki's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga for release sometime in summer 2017. Both studios planned for worldwide distribution and, with the "Chapter I" in the title, were hoping to create sequels.

In November 2016, producer Takashi Hirano said he had been trying to adapt JoJo's Bizarre Adventure for 10 years and acquired the rights from Araki about 5 years ago. Hirano said he chose to adapt Diamond is Unbreakable first because he felt that it is the most beloved story arc of the series.

Director Takashi Miike was already familiar with the manga. He said he wanted the film to have a slightly Western feel and to be able to incorporate some of the large buildings that appear in the original work. Miike recalled the Spanish city of Sitges, which he had visited for the Sitges Film Festival, and decided to film there. Principal photography took place in Japan and Sitges.
