Godzilla first made his appearance in 1954 and he's making a big return for his 60th Anniversary. After years of waiting to see what Gareth Edwards' take on the classic monster would look like, the first official trailer release gives us a really good look at the tone of the movie and Godzilla's new design.
“An epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence. Gareth Edwards directs Godzilla, which stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ken Watanabe, Elizabeth Olsen, and Juliette Binoche, with David Strathairn and Bryan Cranston. The screenplay is by Max Borenstein, Frank Darabont, and Dave Callaham. Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni are producing with Mary Parent and Brian Rogers. Alex Garcia and Patricia Whitcher are the executive producers, alongside Yoshimitsu Banno and Kenji Okuhira.”
Godzilla will be released to US theaters on May 16th, 2014 and will be presented in 2D, 3D and IMAX. The photos below are courtesy of USA Today and keep an eye out for much more Godzilla content between now and the middle of May.
