‘Godzilla Minus One’ trailer has release, watch here

Toho is taking back the Godzilla mantle America borrowed for a brand new Japanese Godzilla movie, and it looks mouthwatering. Ever since the last roar of Godzilla echoed through the cinema halls, fans of the legendary kaiju have been eagerly awaiting any glimpse of the next installment in this iconic franchise. And now, the wait is over.

The first Godzilla Minus One trailer was revealed recently and it showed a blend of human drama and brutal monster destruction in Post-War Japan. The Minus One moniker and time period suggest a reboot where Godzilla appears earlier than his original 1954 debut.

“Godzilla Minus One” not only features the King of the Monsters but also brings back some fan-favorite creatures from the Godzilla universe. Expect to see Mothra, Rodan, and King Ghidorah making a comeback, each with a fresh twist that’s bound to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.

Directed by Takashi Yamazaki, this is the first live-action Godzilla movie from Japan since the stupendous Shin Godzilla in 2016, when we had the King of Monsters Western version appear a couple of times.

Godzilla Minus One is getting a Japanese release on November 3, 2023, with a Western release set for December 1, 2023. Given the creature’s modern prominence thanks to its Western outings, it’s good to see a Toho version getting a theatrical run.
