 An English dub of this film was produced by the Walt Disney Company in 1999,  but wasnt released on DVD until 2003. The English dub shortens the title to  "Castle in the Sky," removing the word "Laputa," since it means "filthy  whore" in Spanish. The voice cast includes James Van Der Beek, Anna Paquin,  Mark Hamill, Cloris Leachman, and Mandy Patinkin.
