Godzilla Festival 2022 Announced

Godzilla Festival 2022 Announced
By G. H. (Gman)Godzilla (Toho) NewsLeave a CommentPublished: September 20, 2022

The Official Godzilla Store website has been updated with details regarding the 6th annual Godzilla Festival in Japan. A countdown has been added to the site with the new key visual of Yuji Sakai's replica of the 1954 "ShodaiGoji" Godzilla suit. In his eyes reflect Gigan, honoring the Nebula M Spacehunter cyborg's 50th anniversary celebration.


In addition to the CG shortfilm, Godzilla vs. Gigan Rex, another short film will be produced by director Kazuhiro Nakagawa. Nakagawa directed the tokusatsu shorts for the last two years, Godzilla Appears at G-Fest (2020) and the Godzilla vs. Hedorah short from last year. Nakagawa also directed episodes of Ultraman Z and the current series, Ultraman Decker.

This year's festival will also include the debut of a 1972 Gigan suit replica. Expected to show up in Nakagawa's short, the new suit is being built by Shinchi Wakasa, the suit designer for the Millennium series Godzilla suits (sans "GMK") and popular Heisei series villains such as Destoroyah, SpaceGodzilla, MechaGodzilla and Rodan. The original Gigan (pictured below) has since degraded and lost to time.

Plenty of other exciting announcements and merchandise is expected this year as well. The events begin from noon-8:00PM, Tokyo time and will be streamed online. Stay tuned for more information as it comes.

Well toho just finished Shin Ultraman, and next years Shin Kamen Rider is coming out.

 

So i think its safe to saywe might not get a toho movie for a while. Maybe SP will continue or there will be a different animated project.

HinikunaGoji,
Some insiders say otherwise, with multiple people calling the project Godzilla: Zero.

Not to mention it doesn't make a lot of sense to advertise a call for extras on the Godzilla app if it wasn't related in some way. And the fact Toho still hasn't announced what it is while it's in post-production points to a high profile secret.

Kind of reminds of much Netflix was being dead silent about Stranger Things 4, a sharp contrast to the other seasons and how they were promoted.  And wouldn't you know it, people are calling this season the best.  So, maybe this "Godzilla: Zero" will be the same.

And G. H. (Gman), I would definitely agree about it being an anniversary project.  Considering how Godzilla (2014) was given a first-look trailer in 2012, I wouldn't be the slightest surprised to see this get its teaser soon.

HinikunaGoji, Max's Favorite Song? The RUTH Remix Vs. Vecna? Eleven destroying the helicopter? The final scene of the season? Eddie's Guitar God Scene?

There. Are. So. Many. Options.

This one is pretty interesting

Im kinda sad this whole porkect slipped under my radar.

But it looks interesting, according to this article it is set in early postwar japan. That could be interesting.

Perhaps a homage to the Showa franchise?  Revision of 1954?  Or perhaps a complete overhaul?
