As a lifelong film enthusiast and self-proclaimed kaiju connoisseur, I can confidently say that 2024 has been a banner year for Godzilla fans like myself. From the release of the critically acclaimed “Godzilla Minus One” to the upcoming crossover event in Japan, it seems the king of the monsters is taking over pop culture in a way that even he himself would find impressive.
Godzilla’s history of attacking humans and battling colossal beasts began in the 1950s with his debut film. Similar to other long-running franchises, new versions of the monster ruler have been developed over time to keep the kaiju relevant for future generations. Recent hits such as Legendary Pictures’ Godzilla and the Oscar-winning movie “Godzilla Minus One” have ventured into uncharted territory for the lizard king. Now, a surprising crossover featuring various interpretations of Godzilla throughout the years has emerged in Japan. This unique event brings together almost every take on Godzilla ever created, offering something unprecedented in the history of this iconic creature.
Godzilla has solidified its status as one of the most iconic colossal monsters ever created. Though many stories depict Godzilla working alongside humans, battling adversaries like King Ghidorah, Rodan, and even King Kong, the movie “Godzilla Minus One” showcases a different side where it clashes with humanity. In Godzilla’s debut film, the monster targeted human civilization, but over time, his destructive attacks have become less frequent. Regardless of whether he is friend or foe to humans, Godzilla’s enduring popularity shows no signs of diminishing.

The Godzilla Crossover To End All Crossovers
The upcoming Godzilla special event will feature a vibrant poster showcasing various interpretations of Godzilla, ranging from the terrifyingly realistic in Shin Godzilla to the cute and endearing in Chibi Godzilla. Tokyo Night & Light has released this poster as a sneak peek for those who can’t visit Japan to experience this monster mashup in person. While it’s not confirmed that an official crossover project combining all these Godzilla versions is underway, the multiverse concept is quite popular in contemporary culture.

It’s a Good Time To Be A ‘Zilla Fan
Previously this year, it became official that the film Godzilla Minus One wouldn’t just get a follow-up, but its writer, director, and creator, Takashi Yamazaki, would also be involved in the sequel. On the other hand, Legendary Pictures is developing the third installment of the Godzilla x Kong franchise, while simultaneously collaborating with Apple TV+ on a second season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters and a fresh spin-off series focusing on the destructive kaiju.
In the realm beyond films and shows, Godzilla is set to arrive on land due to Fortnite’s strategy to incorporate the monster into its game mechanics. The upcoming chapter, slated for release in December, has kaiju enthusiasts eager to discover the part that the giant lizard will play in the widely acclaimed battle royale.
