referring to this announcement. There are still so many mysteries about
the legendary Yonkou, and you can watch the announcement trailer below:
It will be an original movie supervised by Eiichiro Oda himself. The
poster and Oda’s message tease an important female character as well.

which spelled out OP FILM SOON in the Straw Hats’ names, and
symbolically they were highlighted in the color red. You can see them
below:
With Shanks being as important as he is, a movie focused on the captain of the Red-Haired Pirates would be a must-watch for any ONE PIECE fan
regardless of whether it covered his young past or more recent
activities in the New World. It being an original story is not
specifically neither canon nor filler, so we’ll have to wait for more
details.
