The Forbidden Man

The Forbidden Man is a 2004 animated mystery drama television miniseries directed by Garrett Fredrickson. It is about an amnesiac man who becomes protected by a secret society as he is being persecuted by a government officer for possible witchcraft. It was a co-production between Japanese production companies Dentsu Inc, and Shaft, and American production company LIVE Entertainment, being the first production by LIVE after rebranding from their previous name, Nightstorm Productions. The miniseries ran for two episodes airing on TNT from March 18, 2004 to March 25 of that year. It was also released in theaters in some international territories, where both episodes were combined into a 114 minute film. Similarly the VHS/DVD releases of the film in the United States also presented it as a feature film rather than a miniseries.
