It’s been confirmed that Gareth Edwards will no longer be directing Godzilla 2, according to Deadline. The site states that the split with Legendary Entertainment was an amicable one.
Edwards has just got off directing Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and apparently has his own project that he wants to pursue, which is on a much smaller scale than the likes of both Godzilla and Star Wars. Currently, no director has taken his place but we’ll be keeping our eyes and ears open for any news.
Godzilla 2 has a release date of March 22nd, 2019 and it will be the precursor to Godzilla vs Kong, which will be coming over a year later on May 20th, 2020.
