Tales from Earthsea (ゲド戦記 Gedo Senki?, lit. Ged's War Chronicles), based on the book series by Ursula K. Le Guin, is the debut feature of Hayao Miyazaki's son, Goro Miyazaki (宮崎吾朗 Miyazaki Gorou?).
The film is adapted mostly from The Farthest Shore (The Earthsea Cycle, Book 3), along with Hayao Miyazaki's manga The Journey of Shuna.
Rights issues between US distributor Disney and Hallmark Entertainment along with the SciFi Channel cable TV network delayed a US release of this film. The previous rights to the title expired in 2009, and Disney gave the film a limited theatrical release through its Touchstone Pictures subsidiary on 13 August 2010.
