- GODZILLA
After footage was shown at Comic-Con earlier this year it
was quite clear that the new Godzilla film, would certainly be something unlike
we have seen so far and director Gareth Edwards, aims to keep it that way.
When talking to Total Film (via Coventry Telegraph), Edwards
said: "I've always been interested in Godzilla and the ideas around him. I
really wanted to see another Godzilla film and jumped at the opportunity. My
main idea was to imagine 'If this really happened, what would it be like?' I
want to take a grounded, realistic approach to a Godzilla film."
They also asked him about getting the visual effects and
creature design right and he had a unique answer: "I've never worked this
hard, this long and been this emotionally involved in something that's lasted
only a few seconds since the time I lost my virginity! But the reaction has
been amazing and I can't wait for the fans to see our final product."
Edwards will direct from a screenplay originally drafted by
David Callaham (The Expendables), David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight) and Max
Borenstein (The Seventh Son).
Toho's Godzilla franchise boasts one of the most widely
recognized film creatures worldwide, resulting in a series of books, television
programs, video games and more than 25 films worldwide. Legendary's Thomas Tull
and Jon Jashni will produce, along with Roy Lee, Dan Lin and Brian Rogers. Alex
Garcia and Patricia Whitcher will serve as executive producers alongside Doug
Davison, Yoshimitsu Banno and Kenji Okuhira.
