SHIN GODZILLA Gets an Intense U.S. Trailer
We’ve already seen a handful of trailers for Toho’s Shin Godzilla a.k.a. Godzilla: Resurgence, but today we have the first U.S. trailer from FUNimation. As a fan of the original Godzilla films, I'm overly excited about this movie. I’m more excited for it than I was for Legendary Pictures' 2014 film. This is a movie I can’t wait to see in a room full of other hardcore Godzilla fans.
Make way for the ultimate homage to one of the most enduring legends of the big screen—Godzilla! The King of the Monsters is back in Tokyo for a city-crushing crusade that speaks to the very roots of the world-renowned franchise.
It’s a peaceful day in Japan when a strange fountain of water erupts in the bay, causing panic to spread among government officials. At first, they suspect only volcanic activity, but one young executive dares to wonder if it may be something different… something alive. His worst nightmare comes to life when a massive, gilled monster emerges from the deep and begins tearing through the city, leaving nothing but destruction in its wake. As the government scrambles to save the citizens, a rag-tag team of volunteers cuts through a web of red tape to uncover the monster’s weakness and its mysterious ties to a foreign superpower. But time is not on their side—the greatest catastrophe to ever befall the world is about to evolve right before their very eyes.
Shin Godzilla is getting a limited theatrical release here from October 11th to the 18th. Check out the new trailer below.
