For those who aren’t very familiar with Fullmetal Alchemist, not to worry – you have plenty of time to get acquainted with the anime (which consists of 51 episodes), or you can read the original manga series of the same name before the film’s December debut.
It’s the story Alphonse and Edward Elric, two brothers who are faced with grief after a sudden tragedy befalls them. Believing the art of alchemy and finding the Philosopher’s Stone is the key to turning the tides, the brothers find themselves engulfed in a dangerous world of political games and genocide.
