Those who are equally excited for the real-world antics of Phoenix Wright will be happy to hear that the movie will be featured at this year’s Melbourne International Film Festival.

Last time we searched for evidence of the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney movie (or Gyakuten Saiban in Japanese; 逆転裁判) we uncovered the opening date, behind-the-scenes photos, locations, details and a sneaky trailer.

Now we bring to you the official movie poster and two trailers to keep the hype at a high. Take that!

As we’ve mentioned previously, the movie will be set in a parallel Japan where a different court system exists due to an increase in major crimes. This means that both the prosecutors and our dear defense attorney have only three days to argue their cases in court to prove a person’s innocence or guilt.

Always fans of live actions recreations, Japan has a movie in the works for the DS game Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (or Gyakuten Saiban in Japanese; 逆転裁判). Capcom have finally released an official picture, (sort of) opened a movies website and announced an opening month of February 2012. We also got our hands on a sneaky trailer, some official footage and some behind the scenes photos, because we’re ninjas.

Film studio Toei have also said that they plan to include the classic “OBJECTION” and “TAKE THAT” (or “Igi Ari!” and “Kurae!” in Japanese) making use of CGI and other visual effects to give it that real Pheonix Wright feel. Hurray! The movie stars Japanese actor Hiroki Narimiya as our bumbling new Defense Attorney Ryūichi Naruhodō (Pheonix Wright), with Mirei Kiritani as Mayoi Ayasato (Maya Fey) and Takumi Saito as Reiji Mitsurugi (Miles Edgeworth).
