==International release==
'''United States'''
* Aniplex of America has announced that the movie will screen in theaters in the Unites States in winter. [http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-07-17/3rd-madoka-magica-film-to-screen-in-u.s-this-winter]
 
'''France'''
* Paris - Le Grand Rex (November 22, 2013)
 
==Speculation==
[[File:Madoka bingo movie specula.jpg|right|thumb|150px]]
*The very last part of the new ending animation for the first movie features an unknown pink silhouette - most likely that of Ultimate Madoka - with another silhouette that is somewhat smaller and floating inside its belly, or womb (?) The smaller silhouette appears to be regular Madoka in a fetal position.
**This has fueled speculation of a pregnancy. In Goethe's Faust, Gretchen was actually pregnant with Faust's baby and she was forced to murder her baby by drowning it.
*There have been hints that the witches will reappear in the new movie in some capacity.
**There have been hints that Madoka Kaname will reunite with Homura Akemi, which probably strengthens the speculation above.
**Homura is seen shooting with a gun, not a bow like Madoka's, in the trailer.
*In the new trailer, Homura is wearing her usual black headband and not the red ribbons Madoka gave her. Could she have lost them somehow? Could they have been stolen or destroyed by something or someone?
*There are also mentions of Hitomi Shizuki and the word "Nightmare" associated with her, implying that she will play a prominent role in the third movie. How this is related remains to be seen.
**Nightmares could be the result of Wraiths possessing humans, this would make sense since Hitomi was possessed by a witch in the previous universe and this was changed to accommodate Madoka's wish.
***If monsters are now born out of ordinary humans rather than just magical girls then Urobutcher got Madoka's ass really hard.
*It is speculated that the third movie could be taking place in a different universe.
**The movie might also partially take place in the city of Kasamino.
* It seems likely that the movie will have "flashbacks" to alternate timelines.
*Kyoko is seen in the uniform of the school attended by the other girls.
*Across from Mitakihara's school, Kyoko (who is wearing the school uniform) and Homura are sitting together, in which Homura has glasses and braids again. Homura also has her hands on her knees and she is looking down, possibly to indicate shyness again.
*In the beginning of the first trailer, Homura's soul gem appears to be partially tainted on the close-up.
*It can be speculated that Homura and/or Madoka could somehow become a witch in the new movie.
**This whole new timeline, order of the universe with {{spoiler|Ultimate Madoka}}, and the new system of magic could all even be an illusion. Madoka's ultimate wish could actually be turning out to be a disaster.
*The new trailer suggests that Homura could be losing her memory of Madoka, like everyone else has.
*The first trailer, which is shown clearer at the end of the second movie's Blu-Ray disc, reveals the silhouette of the mysterious Magical Girl standing behind Mami in the below picture. On closer inspection, she has short hair (unlike the girl she's speculated to look like in the pic) and seems to be wearing something on her head, with two bun-like appendages at the top, curled side hair/side-bangs popping outward, and two flaps connected to a string with balls at the end. Where the silhouette is lit up on the bottom, she seems to be wearing fishnet stockings, or at least something with a crisscross pattern up to her thighs.
* Nagisa Momoe, the new magical girl, is speculated to be Charlotte the Dessert Witch as a magical girl. Nagisa's strawberry and chocolate color palette, pink candy bows on her shoes, yellow hair scrunchy, and polka-dotted theme can be matched to Charlotte's designs and color palette. If you look closely, even Nagisa's eyes which are yellow and orange-ringed can be compared to Charlotte's secondary form's eyes. Since Madoka's wish erased witches, this seems very plausible.
**However, it is also speculated that Nagisa may be an Incubator in human form or a manifestation of Madoka in the new universe. The latter is supported by the ending sequence of the first movie, during which the pink silhouette resembling Ultimate Madoka at the end had another silhouette resembling Madoka in its womb. In Goethe's Faust, Gretchen was actually pregnant with Faust's baby, which further supports this theory.
*Madoka's wish may have changed the fate of magical girls but not that of humanity, it could be that her wish only altered cause (witches) but not effect (disasters), meaning that catastrophes like Walpurgis Night attack or even Kriemhild Gretchen's apocalypse will still play out in a different form despite of Madoka's wish.
* In a bonus trailer from the Rebellion advanced ticket event, there is extra footage of Homura biting(?) and breaking her own soul gem.
**It is also speculated that it could be Madoka breaking Homura's soul gem, by either biting it or breaking it in her fist.
<b>Language of Flower Speculation and Symbolism</b>
*In the Language of Flowers, [[:file:Madoka Deep Red Rose.jpg|the deep red rose]] and its thorns have been used to symbolize both the blood of Christ and the intensity of romantic love, while the rose's five petals are thought to illustrate the five crucifixion wounds of Christ.
*[[:file:Homura White Daisy.jpg|A white daisy]] symbolizes common love.
**The daisy brings a message of innocence and purity, saying, ''"You have as many virtues as this plant has petals,"'' or, ''"I will consider your request."''
***In Victorian times, young, heartbroken women who wished to be loved began a custom using the daisy. A young maiden would pluck a daisy's petals, one by one, and sing, ''"He loves me, he loves me not,"'' as she pulled each petal. The last petal plucked would be the future of her relationship. This custom is still in use today.
*''Your friendship means so much to me.''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQcL1YOa37M]
**In Ancient Greece, Iris, the Goddess of the rainbow, acted as the messenger between heaven and earth. Today, the flower named for her is considered a symbol of communication and messages. In the language of flowers, the three leaves of Iris represents faith, hope, and wisdom. [[:file:Mami Yellow Iris.jpg|Yellow Iris]] symbolizes passion.
*[[:file:Kyouko Craspedia.jpg|Craspedia]] represents good health.
**Commonly known as just billy balls or bilyl buttons, are cheerful, bright yellow flowers. The round pompom flowers are fairly inexpensive and a great accent flower when paired.
*[[:file:Sayaka Borage.jpg|Borage]] represents Courage, Bluntness, Abruptness, Rudeness.
**An old adge, ''"I, Borage, always bring courage."'' Since men who are civil and respectful when sober often become blunt and rude in manner when under the influence of warming cordials, this warming property may have led to Borage being used as the emblem of Bluntness and Rudeness. It is indeed deemed a suitable representative of these characteristics on account of its rough and shaggy appearance the whole plant hanging loosely and being covered with rough hairs.
