press release
An all-new teaser and poster for the upcoming Godzilla Minus Zero debuted today, along with more information about the film’s story and characters.
Godzilla Minus Zero picks up in 1949, two years after the tumultuous events of Godzilla Minus One, and continues the story of the Shikishima family as they face an all-new calamity. In this latest teaser we see additional members from the Godzilla Minus One cast returning and the reveal of a new character, Kanji Murakami, a biologist carrying deep psychological scars from the war. Played by Min Tanaka, celebrated for his unforgettable performance in the 2025 blockbuster Japanese film Kokuho, Murakami will be a pivotal character in the upcoming film.
Fans can also look forward to the return of additional Godzilla Minus One favorites, who join the previously announced Ryunosuke Kamiki as Koichi Shikishima and Minami Hamabe as Noriko Shikishima:
In the newly debuted poster, fans get a closer look at the latest Godzilla design. When viewed with new story information, it paints an impactful picture of what Godzilla Minus Zero may have in store.
War reduced Japan to zero, and Godzilla plunged it into minus. Two years have passed since then, and the country has faced agonizing struggles to achieve recovery and finally reclaim its daily life.
Just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes, crushing hope in an instant.
There is no third time. Everything ends here.
Godzilla Minus Zero comes to North American theatres on November 6, 2026 with Oscar®-winning filmmaker Takashi Yamazaki returning as Director, Screenwriter, and VFX lead.
