Hayao Miyazaki must just hate retirement because he's never really retired. Since his retirement announcement. Since he made his retirement announcement he started working on a short film called Boro The Caterpillar. He's become obsessed with this film and it's satisfied with it being a short film so he has been planning to develop it into a feature film. The short film won't even be released until 2021.
This is a story that Miyazaki has been planning for almost 20 years, so it makes sense that he would also want to develop it as a feature film. He describes the short as "a story of a tiny, hairy caterpillar, so tiny that it may be easily squished between your fingers."
We've heard about this over the past year regarding his plans to start development on the film. Now today it's official! Studio Ghibli has officially reopened its production department to start work...

The road to Hayao Miyazaki’s new movie continues to be a slow effort, but each new development is well worth celebrating. The latest news as reported on Studio Ghibli’s official website is that the company has officially reopened its production department to begin work on Miyazaki’s first feature since 2013.
