This week, Superman is gracing the big screen, yet that doesn’t stop James Gunn from engaging in industry discussions with fellow directors in the entertainment world. Gunn, who holds a deep affection not just for comic books, but for cinema as well, recently had an enjoyable conversation with Takashi Yamazaki, director of “Godzilla Minus One.” During their chat, Gunn expressed his thoughts on the latest Godzilla film, which won an Academy Award. Furthermore, Gunn extended an open invitation to DC Studios to Yamazaki, raising speculation about whether the kaiju-director might soon join the DC Cinematic Universe.
As an observer, I had the chance to chat with the creative mind behind “Godzilla Minus One,” Takashi Yamazaki, in anticipation of Superman’s release. He enthusiastically shared his admiration for the film, expressing that he finds it a stunning piece of work. For him, it’s not just about creating big-spectacle films; it’s about preserving the essence of what Godzilla movies are all about. It’s not a mockery of previous Godzilla productions, but rather a heartfelt tribute to them, with a strong focus on the human element – the people and their stories. He considers it one of his favorite films from the recent past, so he extends his gratitude for such a remarkable creation.

The Godzilla Gunn
Throughout our conversation, Gunn consistently expressed his admiration for the Academy Award-winning monster movie “Godzilla Minus One,” stating, “I find it absolutely stunning. It’s multifaceted. It’s a groundbreaking film. He often criticizes the film industry for producing both ‘artsy movies’ and commercial ones with popular characters, which he feels are carelessly produced without genuine passion. His primary concern is always to determine whether or not there’s a filmmaker behind these productions who genuinely loves their work and isn’t solely driven by financial gain.
To conclude their conversation, Gunn extended an invitation to Yamazaki, suggesting a visit to DC Studios, which could pave the way for him to possibly contribute to this cinematic comic book universe. He warmly invited Yamazaki, saying, “Feel free to stop by at DC Studios! I’ll give you a tour and even show you the original Superman costume that’s in my office!
In a more likely scenario than them fighting on the big screen, it’s comics where Superman (Man of Steel) and Godzilla (King of the Monsters) will clash. The comic series “Justice League Vs. Godzilla Vs. Kong” showcases this crossover, pitting DC heroes against Toho’s giants. With a new series in progress to delve deeper into this blend of superheroes and titans, it’s an exciting time for fans of Godzilla.
