So will Godzilla 2016 be in any theaters?

I'm wonder if it will come to select theaters bc the fact the AOT film will be coming to select theaters next month? Do you think it will?

well i live in mexico and we have popular japanese movies with wide realeses, we got both DBZ movies in about a 3 weeks difrecnce from japan so i have hope they bring it here

It's hard to say right now, but if it's fairly good I can see it getting a limited theatrical release. Not wide like Mexico and some other countries, though.

i hope so. dont even care if american audiences get confused i just want to see it in my local theater instead of watching it online

I think it's quite possible to see a limited theatrical release for this film, like Godzilla 2000 received. Toho is clearly willing to negotiate distributions in the U.S. for their films as demonstrated by Attack on Titan, and Godzilla is their most important property.

A lot of it also comes down to who has the distribution rights for Japanese Godzilla films. Does Sony still have it? Has WB/Legendary picked them up? Are future Japanese Godzilla movies up for grabs? It's at an odd place distribution-wise.
If WB/Legendary have the rights I can't see it getting a wide release ala, Godzilla 2000, for the sake of conflicting interests.

@JRR:
Does the wide release in Mexico include Tijuana, Juarez, Mexicali, Ensenada and Tampico?
