Several months after its eventful release in France, the film Godzilla: Minus One will soon be entitled to a new release in a new version. We tell you everything!

Godzilla returns to the cinema

2023 will have been a particularly rich year for Japanese soft power. Between the exit of The City and its uncertain wallsthe new novel by Haruki Murakami (his first since The Murder of the Commander in 2017), the launch in May of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sur Nintendo Switch, the release of animated films Suzume by Makoto Shinkai and The Boy and the Heron not the legendary Hayao Miyazaki. (his first film since The Wind Rises in 2013), as well as the domination of the MAPPA studio, which released three series that made headlines (season 2 of Vinland Sagaseason 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen and the conclusion of Attack on Titan), Japanese culture lovers were particularly spoiled !

Of course, the release of the phenomenon must also be mentioned. Godzilla: Minus One by Takashi Yamazaki, the first Japanese feature film about the King of the Monsters since the excellent Shin Godzilla by Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi in 2016The film, which had two limited releases in France in December 2023 and January 2024, impressed critics and viewers alike. The effectiveness of its story, which returns to the foundations of the Godzilla myth (finally once again a metaphor for the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki), and the beauty of its special effects (despite an estimated budget of 15 million dollars) have been praised on both sides of the Atlantic.. Godzilla: Minus One also won the Oscar for best visual effects, confirming the enormous lesson that Takashi Yamazaki gave to Hollywood cinema.

While the French distributor All The Anime has announced a DVD, Blu-Ray and 4K Blu-Ray release in the territory for the end of 2024, we learn today that Godzilla: Minus One will benefit from a new release in cinemas, in its black and white version.
