Crunchyroll has acquired the North American and select global theatrical rights for SPY x FAMILY CODE: White.

The film will be available in both Japanese with English subtitles and dubbed in English.
World peace is at stake, and secret agent Twilight (aka Loid Forger) must undergo his most difficult mission yet—pretend to be a family man. Posing as a loving husband and father, he'll infiltrate an elite school to get close to a high-profile politician. He has the perfect cover, except his wife's a deadly assassin, and neither knows the other's identity. But someone does – his adopted daughter, who's a telepath. That's SPY x FAMILY for you!
The anime series SPY x FAMILY is produced by TOHO animation and adapted from the widely acclaimed manga series of the same name written and illustrated by Tatsuya Endo. Serialized in Shueisha's Shonen Jump Plus, the manga currently has over 31 million copies in circulation and has been nominated for both Harvey and Eisner Awards. SPY x FAMILY is a New York Times Graphic Books and Manga bestseller, and all 10 volumes have hit the Circana Bookscan Top 20 Adult Graphic Novels list.
As the official synopsis for the movie goes, "He's a spy. She's an assassin. Together, Loid and Yor keep their double lives to themselves while pretending to be the perfect family. However, their adopted daughter Anya, a telepath, knows both of their exciting secrets unbeknownst to them. While under the guise of taking his family on a weekend winter getaway, Loid's attempt to make progress on his current mission Operation Strix proves difficult when Anya mistakenly gets involved and triggers events that threaten world peace!"
