It would typically be unthinkable for a film released almost 70 years after the original to be considered one of the best in the franchise, if not the very best, but that is exactly what Godzilla Minus One achieved in 2023.

Everything about it was excellent, from Godzilla itself to the human element that often falls by the wayside in such monster movies, the action, the score, the story, and the Academy Award-winning visual effects. It had everything, even including a delicious tease that the King of the Monsters wasn't actually killed in the final moments.

Godzilla's healing ability clearly showed that it had more to offer, and thankfully, that is now confirmed with the announcement of Godzilla Minus Zero, also to be helmed by the returning Takashi Yamazaki in the director's chair.

After such success on a reportedly small budget of $15 million, it's likely that this figure will go way up for the sequel after a huge $113 million global box office intake. Whether or not the cast will be returning, which is entirely possible as their mission to lose no more lives to Godzilla was successful, this potential bump in budget may lead to another kaiju or two stepping into the ring. Who isn't ready to see Mothra or King Ghidora set foot, wing, or triple head into this universe?
