GODZILLA MINUS ONE Director Wants To Play With Mechagodzilla and Ghidorah

Godzilla Minus One director Takashi Yamazaki is still riding high off the success of his film and he is looking to the future of the franchise. We’re all waiting to see what the filmmaker does next, but I’m sure that one day he will get back into the world of Godzilla.

In a recent interview, the filmmaker shared that he's interested in working with two big Kaiju monsters… Mechagodzilla and Ghidorah.

While talking to Encount about his experience with Godzilla Minus One, Yamazaki was asked if he had any interest in tackling other kaiju, and he said that Dolby enhancements make him curious about Ghidorah and Mechagodzilla.

He explained: "Huh... to make use of Dolby Vision. That's right, it's a possibility. I hadn't thought about it, but now that you've said it, I think you're right.”

In a previous interview, the director said: "If I were to direct the next Godzilla movie, I would like to do a sequel to this one. There have been two standalone Godzilla films in a row now, so perhaps the next one will need to feature a villain monster.”

He also explained that he wants to make a Kaiju vs. Kaiju movie that’s actually good, saying: "I don’t know if anyone has achieved a more serious tone of kaiju vs kaiju with human drama, that challenge, is something I would like to explore."

He went on to add, "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."

So, when Yamazaki does jump back into the Godzilla sandbox, we know that Godzilla will most likely be facing off with another Kaiju monster. Mechagodzilla and Ghidorah will both be great choices to bring into the franchise!
