Toho announces a new Japanese film on GODZILLA and sets a release date

While Legendary Pictures produces Godzilla vs. Kong 2 and a live-action Godzilla series for Apple TV +, the production company that originally launched the franchise, Toho, is producing its new Japanese Godzilla movie! They also revealed that November 3 is now Godzilla Day.

The study announced that the Godzilla the film will be released on November 3, 2023, or earlier Godzilla vs. Kong will be released in 2024. This marks the first live-action Toho Godzilla feature from the awesome 2016 movie Shin Godzilla.

Toho has released a teaser image that doesn’t reveal much. The stylized letter G is fantastic, as it was made to resemble the silhouette of a giant kaiju.

CNBC reports that the new Godzilla the film will be directed by Takashi Yamazakiwho worked on visual effects for Shin Godzilla. Lora CohnCEO of Toho International, the Los Angeles-based subsidiary of theatrical film production and distribution company Toho, said, “Godzilla’s long history has shaped the world of pop culture and monstrous fandom for nearly 70 years.”

Bill Tsutsui, a historian and academic known for his Godzilla experience went on to talk about the Godzilla story by saying, “For so many decades the Japanese have not been very proud of creating this cinematic monster. It wasn’t as big of a deal in Japan as Godzilla was overseas. Recently, however, the Japanese, including the Toho studio, have come to realize just how huge a Godzilla property is and have done a much better job of exploiting and commercializing Godzilla and growing that property. The Japanese have found a new sense of pride in the monster, and this is an important addition here. “

It is unknown what story the new Godzilla movie will tell, but it could serve as a sequel Shin Godzilla. However, there are also rumors that the film may be a WWII era story set in the 1940s, which would be interesting!
