Death and Rebirth (1996)
Told from the various perspectives of the tale's primary characters, Death & Rebirth is a composition of epic proportions. The first half of the film is an orchestrated retelling of episodes 1 through 24 of the original groundbreaking Neon Genesis Evangelion saga. Supplemented with startling new animated sequences, Death offers a unique insight into the personal worlds of the characters as conceived of by the series' director Hideki Anno. In Rebirth, the second half of the film, we see an alternate vision of episode 25 of the original series.

The End of Evangelion (1997)
When the first Evangelion feature, Death and Rebirth, proved no more satisfying than the last episodes of the original series, Hideaki Anno brought his watershed epic to its conclusion in this final installment. End of Evangelion begins where the series ended: with the Angels defeated, the sinister SEELE attacks NERV Headquarters to seize the Evas and realize their plan for humanity. Misato and Ritsuko fight from inside while Asuka decimates a new Eva series. The film effectively retells the last two episodes of the original series, but with a cinematic budget that most fans have come to prefer.

Live Action Evangelion (Unreleased)
Plans are underway to transform Evangelion to the big screen. This ambitious project is being championed by ADV Films (the North American distributor of the television series) and Weta Workshop (the studio behind The Lord of the Rings and King Kong). Production is still in it's conceptual stages, and few details are available.

Rebuild of Evangelion (2007-2010)
The Rebuild of Evangelion is a series of four new animated Evangelion films directed by Hideaki Anno and released between 2007 and 2010. While details are scarce, the films are to be an alternate retelling of the Evangelion story, complete with new scenes and supposedly a completely different ending than previously seen.
