Before you get too excited, please be aware the “Godzilla Minus One” black and white release is, at this time, ONLY planned for Japan. We’re really hoping the continual box office success of the film at US theaters will make it happen.
UPDATE
The US release for the black and white version is scheduled to run January 26th-February 1st, 2024!
Written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, “Godzilla Minus One” has become a monster of a film. Setting records for Kaiju movies, it’s also become the best-reviewed / rated film of its kind. To celebrate it’s giant success, Toho has announced a new version of the film is on the way.
“We are now able to announce Godzilla-1.0/C, which we have been working on for a long time. Rather than just making it monochrome, it is a cut by cut,” Yamazaki said. “I had them make adjustments while making full use of various mattes, as if they were creating a new movie. What I was aiming for was a style that looked like it was taken by masters of monochrome photography. We were able to unearth the texture of the skin and the details of the scenery that were hidden in the photographed data. Then, a frightening Godzilla, just like the one in the documentary, appeared. By eliminating color, a new sense of reality emerges. Please live and resist further fear at the theater.”
The film stars Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Yuki Yamada, Munetaka Aoki, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Sakura Ando, and Kuranosuke Sasaki, with music by Naoki Sato. The “Godzilla Minus One” black & white version will open in Japanese theaters January 12th, 2024.
