Official title of the next Godzilla Movie!

Cool. There's some concern that we won't be able to step into the same water twice. But it's still great that Toho is continuing to make Godzilla movies.

Lowkey was expecting a G-man roar at the end.

I really really hope that this isn't a monster battle film, I want to see what a true Godzilla sequel that focuses on just one monster looks like. The closest we've gotten is Godzilla 1984, which I don't really count because it's more of a reboot continuation than a true sequel to the original, and there's no other examples.

More than likely it’s a monster battle film. I also read somewhere the director always wanted to remake Godzilla vs Hedorah the Smog Monster.

I'll be very happy if these rumors are true. The original Godzilla is my favorite film by Showa, and I'm very interested to see how a modern remake/reimagining will look. And the topic of pollution, unfortunately, hasn't lost its relevance.

Aside from the thing about Hedorah, what makes you say that? We've barely seen anything about the movie so far, and it's really hard for me to imagine a monster battle sequel that keeps the tone of the original.

I didn’t actually say Hedorah was IN the movie, just that the director liked Hedorah. Either way I can?t remember where I saw it, but Toho increased the budget for this film and said there is another monster.

Maybe they're trying to make a modern-day Godzilla Strikes Again? So that the second monster would appear for a brief battle with Godzilla, and the bulk of the film would be devoted to the human struggle.
