Godzilla is back in the recently released trailer for Godzilla Minus Zero, the sequel to the acclaimed 2023 TOHO Studios film, Godzilla Minus One.
The upcoming movie takes place in 1949, two years after the events of Minus One, and centers on the Shikishima family, who we met in the first film. The survivors will face “an all-new calamity,” and also, presumably, Godzilla once again. To that end, Minus Zero will see Ryunosuke Kamiki reprising his role as pilot Koichi Shikishima and Minami Hamabe returning as Noriko Oishi. The movie will also see Godzilla heading to New York, as the trailer shows the monster heading toward the Statue of Liberty in its final moments.
Minus Zero comes from Godzilla Minus One writer and director, Takashi Yamazaki, who is also in charge of visual effects. Godzilla Minus Zero will also be the first Japanese movie shot for IMAX screens. The 2023 film was a surprise hit, earning almost $114 million globally, according to Box Office Mojo, and earning an Oscar for Best Visual Effects.
Odds are good that Godzilla Minus Zero will do just as well, if not better. The movie will premiere in the U.S. on November 6, 2026.
Check out the first trailer for the film below. [end-mark]
