One of the earliest announcements for Godzilla Day has been the rumored upcoming movie for the 70th anniversary! Arriving in theaters on November 3rd, 2023 will be the next entry from Toho directed by Japanese Academy Award winning director Takashi Yamazaki!

Last Spring, a site calling for extras revealed that Yamazaki was directing an Untitled, Toho kaiju film. The call for extras revealed the film was be shot between March-June this year. It also revealed that the scenes in need of extras take place in the late 1940s--post-war Japan. It's unclear if the setting is for one scene or the entire picture.

Additionally, the call for extras was announced on the Godzilla+ App in Japan. This lead some Japanese fans to wonder if Yamazaki was directing the next Godzilla entry. While details are scarce, the rumored title is Godzilla: Zero. (The logo seems to indicate a "zero" looking G.)

An avid Godzilla fan, Yamazaki won the Japanese Academy Award for Best Director and Best Screenwriter in 2006 for Always: Sunset on Third Street. He also helmed highly acclaimed actioners, Returner and Space Battleship Yamato. Yamazaki gave Godzilla a cameo during a dream sequence for Always: Sunset on Third Street 2. He also directed the footage for the Seibuen Amusement Park's Godzilla the Ride: Giant Monster Battle Summit. The man is no stranger to Godzilla.

You can watch footage of Godzilla he's directed in his projects below.

YYYEEEESSSSS!!!! hope this film brings back some classic kaiju & a cool new unique Godzilla design.

I want to know more, hopefully the goji design will be unveiled

 

Unhelpful factoid: If you live in The USA and are wondering why this info is coming out on Nov 2 instead of Nov 3, its Nov 3 in Japan

Cool. I wonder what the plot will be.

SasquaDash

MemberAnguirusNov-03-2022 6:24 AM

Wait, if it comes out in 2023, it would be for the 69th anniversary, rather than the 70th.

Monsterzero9

MemberAnguirusNov-03-2022 7:42 AM

maybe it will have anguirus and maybe monsterarts will make a figure of of that!

SasquaDash,
Could be the 70th since it's the end of the year. Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II was released in December of 1993, but was considered the 30th Anniversary film. There's a logo for it on the poster.

AdminGodzillaNov-03-2022 8:24 PM

HinikunaGoji,
I'm assuming he either means a series watch or a lookout for the trailer.

HinikunaGoji

MemberBaragonNov-03-2022 10:16 PM

Yeah I shouldn’t automatically try to correct people

Cool Godzilla

MemberGiganNov-04-2022 4:46 PM

Cool, I wonder what it would be about.

sonictiger

MemberGiganNov-04-2022 5:16 PM

G. H. (Gman), I plan to watch the entire franchise before November 3rd.

I'll be sure to keep you guys posted.  Could anyone here give me a good viewing order (I'll be skipping the MonsterVerse this time around so don't post that).

Imma skip TriStar for now, but maybe I'll put it on the watchlist of universally hated movies.

sonictiger

G. H. (Gman)

AdminGodzillaNov-06-2022 11:05 PM

For the sake of continuity I created this thread awhile ago:

Godzilla Franchise Continuities

Xenotaris

MemberGiganNov-07-2022 1:47 AM

 crap I got Mothra vs Godzilla and Godzilla vs Mothra switched around

Jordan502

MemberMothra LarvaeJan-31-2023 7:06 AM

Ah this is awesome. I hope they add a new unique monster that's on par of ascending god hood. Nothing better than an OG fighting a new villain that completely overpowers them.
