A new Godzilla movie is coming to theaters later this year, and we now know it will have a large worldwide release. The Godzilla franchise has been very popular recently, both through films like those in Legendary’s Monsterverse and through Toho’s own productions. The movie released to celebrate Godzilla’s 70th anniversary was actually the most successful film in the franchise, earning both critical acclaim and strong box office numbers.
The recent success of Godzilla Minus One has led to a quick announcement of a sequel, Godzilla Minus Zero, which is scheduled to be released globally later this year. IMAX CEO Rich Gelfond has now confirmed that the new film will also be available to view in IMAX theaters worldwide, offering fans the chance to experience it on the largest screens available when it premieres this fall.
Godzilla Minus Zero Confirms Worldwide IMAX Release
I recently learned from IMAX CEO Rich Gelfond that Godzilla Minus Zero is getting a full IMAX release worldwide. What’s really exciting is how quickly it’s coming to theaters everywhere. Unlike Godzilla Minus One, which had a several-month gap between its Japanese and US releases, Minus Zero will be hitting screens in Japan and the United States just days apart. That means fans won’t have to wait long to see it!
Godzilla Minus One will premiere in Japan on November 3rd, followed by a release in the United States and Canada on November 6th, thanks to Toho and GKIDS. This quick turnaround for the international release – and the confirmation that it will be shown in IMAX – is a big vote of confidence in the film. It also marks a significant change for Japanese cinema, as North American fans will now be able to see new releases just days after they come out in Japan, rather than waiting years. It’s truly amazing!
What to Know for Godzilla Minus Zero
Toho is keeping details about the upcoming Godzilla sequel under wraps, but they’ve assembled the same creative team as Godzilla Minus One – including director and writer Takashi Yamazaki. ROBOT is producing, with visual effects handled by SHIROGUMI Inc. Filming began last summer, suggesting Toho is working quickly to build on the success of the first film.
With its huge box office success, Godzilla Minus One became Toho’s most profitable film in the franchise’s 70-year history, and it even won an Academy Award for its visual effects – a first for the series. Alongside the upcoming Godzilla x Kong: Supernova, plus new comics, TV shows, and other projects, it’s clear Godzilla will remain a pop culture icon for years to come.
