Godzilla Minus One director wants a serious rival Monster battle in a sequel!

Godzilla Minus One director Takashi Yamazaki wants to tackle the challenge of a serious Monster vs. Monster battle if Minus One gets a sequel! Speaking to Empire Magazine, Takashi expressed his interest in bringing the serious tone of Minus One and applying it to a storyline which could balance a Human drama as well as additional Monsters:

I don’t know if anyone has achieved a more serious tone of kaiju vs kaiju with human drama, that challenge, is something I would like to explore.

He further adds:

When you have movies that feature [kaiju battles], I think it's very easy to put the spotlight and the camera on this massive spectacle, and it detaches itself from the human drama component.

Takashi Yamazaki did a phenomenal job balancing the human struggle with that of Godzilla and its threat to Japan. Introducing additional Monsters does detract from that dynamic, but if anyone is capable of balancing the Monster and Human drama in a serious way, Yamazaki is the man to do it.

If Godzilla Minus One gets a sequel and if it involves another Monster, which Monster would YOU like to see brought back? Or would you rather Toho introduce brand new Monsters to the franchise? Let us know in the comments section below!

unless its MANY MANY years later MechaGodzilla is out  unless they redoo showa era and Mecha G is built by Aliens which i think would be a bad idea.   personally i think it should be another Godzilla  i love Anguirus but having him be the other kaiju Godzilla fights would be to much of a rehash now if Godzilla fights another Godzilla then Anguirus shows up or has a cameo at the end to tease his full appearance in the next movie  now that i can get on board with.
