We still can’t stop watching the jaw-dropping trailer for Michael Dougherty’s Godzilla: King of the Monsters, which premiered out of Comic Con over the weekend. The film looks to be a visual feast, and we cannot wait to see all of our favorite monsters up on the big screen: not just the Big G, but also Mothra, Rodan and the three-headed beast, King Ghidorah!
Sounds like a crazy Toho mashup film, eh? Destroy All Monsters, anyone?
Speaking of which, this fan-made edit of the King of the Monsters trailer, shared by Dougherty himself, gives the film a retro, Toho-style 1964 makeover. And it’s PERFECT.
Warner Bros. has set a May 31, 2019 date for Godzilla’s return.
The sequel takes place five years after the events in the first film…
“When these ancient super-species—thought to be mere myths—rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity’s very existence hanging in the balance.”
Zhang Ziyi, Kyle Chandler, Vera Farmiga, Millie Bobby Brown, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Bradley Whitford, Ken Watanabe, Thomas Middleditch, Charles Dance and Aisha Hinds star.
Dougherty directed from a script he wrote with Zach Shields.
