“Some bonds live forever โ even when hearts stop beating.”
Seventeen years after the world wept for a dog who waited at a train station until his final breath, a new chapter begins.
Hachi 2 โ A Legacy of Love (2026) brings audiences back to the snowy platforms of Bedridge Station โ where loyalty became legend. This time, the story follows Andrew Parker (played by Richard Gere), the now-grown grandson of Professor Parker, who returns to his childhood town with questions about love, loss, and the silent legacy left behind.
While visiting his grandfatherโs memorial, Andrew encounters a young Akita puppy abandoned near the station โ a quiet, amber-eyed soul who seems to recognize him. From this moment, an unexpected bond forms. Soon, strange things begin to happen:
- The dog sits at the station every day at 5 p.m., just like Hachi once did.
- Old station workers whisper, โHeโs come back.โ
- And in the silence of winter, Andrew begins to realize โ loyalty isnโt inherited by blood, but by love.
โจ What makes Part 2 so special?
- A continuation, not a remake. Itโs a tribute to unconditional love passed from generation to generation.
- Beautiful original score inspired by Jan A.P. Kaczmarek, returning to break hearts and heal them again.
- Filmed across Japan & New England, blending the true Hachikล tale with the American legacy that moved the world.
- Featuring new faces and the return of familiar ones โ with Richard Gere narrating as an older Andrew, reflecting on life, loyalty, and the dog who changed history.
๐ฌ โSome spirits donโt leave. They waitโฆ until someone remembers.โ
Prepare to cry, smile, and believe in love all over again.
Hachi 2 โ A Legacy of Love (2026) isnโt just a movie โ itโs a tribute to every soul who ever waited for someone who never came home.
๐ฅ In theaters Christmas 2026. Bring tissues. Bring someone you love.
