Back in early December, we brought you news that Japan’s Toho Studios are planning a new Godzilla film, some sources say reboot, but that’s not confirmed as of yet. For what it’s worth, Toho has released a teaser poster for the film set for 2016 and we have that for you down below.
Toho is producing a new work of its iconic film monster Godzilla for release throughout Japan in 2016. It will be the first Godzilla film by Toho since 2004’s Godzilla Final Wars.
Production of the new film will run from summer to fall of next year, and Toho is assembling the staff. It will have no direct ties with Edwards’ film, but will instead be an entirely new Godzilla film. Edwards and Legendary Pictures are separately planning a sequel to their own film.
Toho proclaimed, “The time has come to make a film that will not bow down to the Hollywood film,” thanks to a combination of rapidly improving filmmaking techniques and know-how developed over the years in Japan.
Sources say that Toho is deciding on whether the effects for the new film will be the traditional man-in-a-suit technology or possibly digital CGI technology for Godzilla.
We’ll be sure to keep you updated on any news that develops.
