Evangelion: 3.0 "Evangelion New Theatrical Edition: Quickening") is an upcoming Japanese animated film directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki and Masayuki, and written by Hideaki Anno. It is the third of four films released in the Rebuild of Evangelion tetralogy based on the original anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion. It will be produced and co-distributed by Hideaki Anno's Studio Khara, and will be released in Japanese theatres in Autumn 2012.
Evangelion: 3.0 was first previewed in a post-credits trailer following Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance, continuing the story with Shinji and Rei still frozen within Unit-01, Tokyo-3 and the Geofront being abandoned, "NERV personnel [being] held in confinement," "Eva Unit-06 descend[ing] on Dogma," "the quickening Eva Unit-08 and its pilot," and the assembling of "the children chosen by fate." Among the images shown are the impaled Unit-01, Kaworu meeting with four shadowy figures, Gendo and Fuyutsuki in mountain climbing gear, Kaji angrily shouting while pointing a pistol at someone, Mari confronting Rei while three other Reis hide behind her, a private conference between Mari and an unknown person (whose name is crossed out), and a restored Asuka wearing an eyepatch. The trailer ends with the customary promise of more "fan service".
On August 26, 2011, following the television broadcast of Evangelion 2.02' You Can (Not) Advance, a 15-second teaser trailer was released, featuring footage of Asuka piloting the EVA:02'β in space and a release date in autumn of 2012.
