Thirty days ago, the then Official Untitled Godzilla Film Twitter began to countdown each film in reverse order leading to an unspecified reveal. Today, the Twitter account has been rechristened with the official title, Godzilla Minus One!
The countdown did not disappoint! Watch the trailer to Godzilla Minus One below:
Set in a post-war Japan, Godzilla Minus One will once again show us a Godzilla that is a terrifying and overwhelming force. Japan, which had already been devastated by the war, faces a new threat with Godzilla, bringing the country from nothing (zero) into the ‘minus.’
Godzilla Minus One is directed by Takashi Yamazaki. An award winning filmmaker and avid Godzilla fan, his work on Always: Sunset on Third Street (2005) earned him two Japanese Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Screenwriter. He was honored with another Best Director and Best Screenplay nomination for the sequel, Always: Sunset on Third Street 2 (2007). In 2016, he won the Best Director category again for The Eternal Zero. Yamazaki also helmed highly acclaimed actioners, Returner, Space Battleship Yamato and many other.
He gave Godzilla a cameo during an opening dream sequence in Always: Sunset on Third Street 2. In 2021 he returned to Godzilla and directed footage for Seibuen Amusement Park's Godzilla the Ride: Giant Monster Battle Summit.
In addition to the new trailer you can follow the upcoming Godzilla film on Instagram and Tik Tok!
Godzilla Minus One opens in Japan on November 3rd, 2023--the exact date the original 1954 film opened 69 years ago. The US theatrical release is December 1st, 2023!
