Plex agent not grabbing correct movie from TMDB

Server Version#: 4.76.1
Player Version#: 9.0.6.31998

I have added this movie in my library, with the correct naming:

この世界の(さらにいくつもの)片隅に (2019)

However, when searching, the Plex agent can’t find it and constantly refers to the wrong movie, namely:

この世界の片隅に (2016)

The cause is most likely that both titles are very similar, aside from what’s between brackets. Still, this seems like an error by the agent in Plex as in TMDB, both movies are input correctly.

Any way to force PLEX agent to pick the right one? I tried manually searching for metadata, but the correct movie isn’t even featured in the list.

Any help would be appreciated!

Have you tried searching by the english name?
You could also try searching for the TMDB ID

PS
the number in the url is the TMDB ID
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/873190-in-this-corner-and-other-corners-of-the-world?language=en-US

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately I can’t seem to be able to use the TMDB ID number to search with the plex agent.

I’ve noticed that TMDB considers this a separate entry, while IMDB considers this a special edition version of the 2016 movie. Could that be the cause of the issue?
