It was released in Japan on July 12, 1997, and then in the United States on October 29, 1999. I became interested in the film because of the mass advertisements about the voice talent used in dubbing the film over for an American audience. Here is a list of the American voice actors who made the English Dub accessible (in my opinion) to a larger audience:
Billy Crudup - Ashitaka
Billy Bob Thornton - Jigo
Minnie Driver - Lady Eboshi
John Di Maggio - Gonza
Claire Danes - San
John DeMita - Kohroku
Jada Pinkett Smith - Toki
Gillian Anderson - Moro
Keith David - Okkoto
Corey Burton - Additional voices
Tara Strong - Additional voices (as Tara Charandoff)
The film is beautiful to watch and very engaging and I highly recommend it for anyone who has an interest in cartoons. A funny thing about this film I was not aware that Neil Gaiman had some adaption credits on this until recently and so now I like the film a little bit more. Go check it out for yourself though.

Nice pick. I really preferred the tone of Spirited Away.
