While Dreamworks chose to put out Ghost in the Shell II: Innocence subtitled only in the US, Manga Entertainment Ltd. announced at the London MCM Expo that they have acquired the UK license and are teaming up with Australian Madman Entertainment to produce a dub for their release, using the cast from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex if possible.
