Described by Legendary as the “Asia Trailer” this new Godzilla trailer features another good look at the nuclear Komodo dragon in all its rage-filled glory, which seems to be the goal of each new piece of marketing for the film as of late. Personally this has become one of my most anticipated, if not the most anticipated blockbuster of the summer (Boyhood is still my most anticipated overall film) as I really hope director Gareth Edwards (Monsters) has done the Toho classic justice, made it his own and didn’t try to pay too much of an homage as the roar and physical appearance of Godzilla seems to be more than enough of an homage as is.
Check out the new trailer below, Godzilla roars into theaters on May 16.
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. The film is from Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures.
