FUNimation, best known as the United States distributor for Dragon Ball Z, has secured the rights for Godzilla Resurgence in the North, Central and South American territories! According to an exclusive by SciFi Japan, Godzilla Resurgence is planned for a late 2016 release!

Comicbook.com reports that FUNimation made a public announcement at their San Diego Comic Con panel! Announcing plans for a late year theatrical release, FUNimation CEO, Gen Fukunaga beamed,

"Funimation is extremely pleased to be working with Toho to bring Shin-Godzilla [Godzilla Resurgence] to audiences across the Americas. Godzilla became a science fiction icon from the moment Toho brought it to the big screen in 1954. We’re honored to be a part of its rich history.”

The below image was shared on FUNimation's official twitter, confirming their plans for a theatrical release.


Last year FUNimation handled the North American theatrical release for Attack on Titan Parts I & II. Attack on Titan Part I will be hitting Blu-ray & DVD this October.

We wait for an official date for Godzilla Resurgence, coming to America this year! More as it comes!

This is pretty much the best thing we could reasonably hope for.

 

Now that I know it's coming over maybe I can start getting hyped like I should

Can someone please explain how the American AoT theatrical release worked? Was it only in a few big theaters in Hollywood?

WaffleThePilot,
The Attack on Titan North American theatrical run was a limited release. Both films were shown in nearly 300 theaters across the nation for roughly a week. Most of the theaters showing Attack on Titan were located in larger cities per state.
