Another 'Godzilla' Movie Is On The Way As Fans Wait For A MonsterVerse Sequel With King Kong

2023-01-14 12

Godzilla has had a good run in Hollywood for almost a decade now thanks to the MonsterVerse. The Legendary Pictures/Warner Bros. Pictures franchise kicked off in 2014 introducing this version of the reptilian Titan, and following his showdown with King Kong last year, a "Godzilla vs. Kong" sequel is set for release in 2024. Before that though, there’s another "Godzilla" movie on the way, though this one comes from Japan, the monster’s home turf.

Toho, the film studio that owns Godzilla and licenses him out to the MonsterVerse, has announced that it will release a new "Godzilla" movie on November 3, 2023, a.k.a. the 69th anniversary of when the first "Godzilla" movie came out, in Japan, followed by its release in the United States and other markets at a later time. The only other major piece of information that Toho revealed about this untitled "Godzilla" movie (via CNBC) is that Takashi Yamazaki, who handled the visual effects on "Shin Godzilla," will direct the feature.
