That news about a movie is interesting, though there's a lot of things to doubt when it comes to what it'll mean. With how much the Moro Arc has been stretched, it seems doubtful Toei would just condense it down to a 2 hour at most film. The part about it going in a different direction could be applied to the early Moro Arc, but the current events are the more standard fare. It seems more likely the new movie will either be something different from the manga's events to give the manga even more time or Toei may go back to the route of making stand-alone, explicitly non-canon movies.
