Studio Ghibli director Hayao Miyazaki cancels retirement, hires artists for last feature film soranews24.com

It was a sad day for anime fans everywhere when Studio Ghibli announced that their acclaimed director Hayao Miyazaki would be retiring in 2013.
Since then, however, the veteran filmmaker has been unable to tear himself away from the animation studio, keeping himself busy with a CG short for the Ghibli Museum called Kemushi no Boro (Boro the Caterpillar).
Today, Studio Ghibli announced that the CG short was now complete, and Miyazaki has decided to “withdraw” his retirement in order to make one last feature-length anime film.
Successful employees will be hired to work at the Studio Ghibli headquarters in Koganei, Tokyo, on a contract basis for a three-year period, starting from 1 October.
