That was the 69th anniversary – and since this 12 months marks the seventieth anniversary of the unique movie, Godzilla Minus One is returning to theatres this weekend… and that’s not the one method Toho is celebrating the anniversary. Right now, they’ve additionally introduced that they’ve given the greenlight to a brand new Godzilla film that might be written and directed by Godzilla Minus One mastermind Takashi Yamazaki, who will even be dealing with the visible results! The announcement might be seen proper right here:
Godzilla Minus One noticed an already devastated postwar Japan going through a brand new menace within the type of Godzilla. Toho’s Koji Ueda supplied the synopsis: “Set in a post-war Japan, Godzilla Minus One will as soon as once more present us a Godzilla that may be a terrifying and overwhelming pressure, which you already get a way of from the teaser trailer and poster. The idea is that Japan, which had already been devastated by the conflict, faces a brand new menace with Godzilla, bringing the nation into the ‘minus.’“ The movie stars Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Yuki Yamada, Munetaka Aoki, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Sakura Ando, and Kuranosuke Sasaki, with music by Naoki Sato. Apparently, one in all Yamazaki’s earlier credit is the 2007 movie At all times: Sundown on Third Road 2, which includes a Godzilla cameo in a fantasy sequence.
Particulars on Yamazaki’s follow-up haven’t been revealed, however Yamazaki has all the time been open about the truth that he hoped to get the prospect to make a sequel. He has mentioned, “I would certainly like to see what the sequel would look like. I know that Shikishima’s war seems over, and we’ve reached this state of peace and calm – but perhaps [it’s the] calm before the storm, and the characters have not yet been forgiven for what has been imposed upon them. … I don’t know that anyone has pulled off a more serious tone of kaiju-versus-kaiju with human drama, and that challenge is something that I’d like to explore. When you have movies that feature [kaiju battles], I think it’s very easy to put the spotlight and the camera on this massive spectacle, and it detaches itself from the human drama component.” He went on to say that he must “make it possible for the human drama and no matter’s occurring between [the] kaiju each have that means, and each are capable of have an effect on each other when it comes to plot growth.“
