For a while, Godzilla was quite a terrifying character. An enormous, primordial, radioactive lizard that wakes up and begins destroying cities without breaking a sweat. This theme for Godzilla existed for some time until the recent reboot, where suddenly Godzilla was pitted against other mega monsters and thus the theme of terrorising humanity fell to the wayside as the giant creature became more of a saviour for humans instead. Production company Toho Co. is looking to return to the character's roots.
A first trailer for the upcoming film, Godzilla Minus One, has now been released, and it sure does look like humans will have their hands full dealing with this iteration of the character. The movie is set in postwar Japan and sees the Japanese people having to deal with Godzilla as it begins its rampage through the country.
The film is slated to debut in theatres around the world from December 1, 2023. Check out the trailer below.
