In the previous trailer for Godzilla Minus Zero, the big guy was menacing the Statue of Liberty. Now, he’s getting a nuclear bomb dropped on him. In a brief new teaser, the first bit of dialogue is a man saying, “I speculate Godzilla can withstand even a thermonuclear strike.” Seems like we might be about to find out. Another voice says, “Another moral boundary mankind shouldn’t cross.” Oof.
Godzilla Minus Zero is written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, who also handled the visual effects. Yamazaki’s Godzilla Minus One was the highest-grossing Godzilla movie ever (it also won an Oscar for best visual effects). The sequel has been in the works for two years, but even now, very little is known about the plot. The synopsis says only, “Godzilla Minus Zero picks up in 1949, two years after the tumultuous events of Godzilla Minus One, and continues the story of the Shikishima family as they face an all-new calamity.”
Said family includes Ryunosuke Kamiki as former kamikaze pilot Koichi Shikishima and Minami Hamabe as his wife Noriko.
Unlike the first film, Godzilla Minus Zero was shot for IMAX, which presumably means the destruction will be even more dramatic this time around. The film arrives in U.S. theaters on November 6.[end-mark]
