GKIDS has released the official teaser trailer and new poster for their upcoming sequel GODZILLA MINUS ZERO, which will launch in US theaters on November 6th, 2026.
Godzilla Minus Zero is written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki. Here’s the breakdown from the distributor:
Godzilla Minus Zero picks up in 1949, two years after the tumultuous events of Godzilla Minus One, and continues the story of the Shikishima family as they face an all-new calamity. In this latest teaser we see additional members from the Godzilla Minus One cast returning and the reveal of a new character, Kanji Murakami, a biologist carrying deep psychological scars from the war. Played by Min Tanaka, celebrated for his unforgettable performance in the 2025 blockbuster Japanese film Kokuho, Murakami will be a pivotal character in the upcoming film.
Fans can also look forward to the return of additional Godzilla Minus One favorites, who join the previously announced Ryunosuke Kamiki as Koichi Shikishima and Minami Hamabe as Noriko Shikishima:
- Hidetaka Yoshioka reprises his role as Kenji Noda, who fought alongside Koichi Shikishima in Godzilla Minus One and now battles the new threat as the director of the Disaster Response Bureau.
- Yuki Yamada returns as Shiro Mizushima, the young crew member of the Shinseimaru who fought on the front lines, alongside Kuranosuke Sasaki as Seiji Akitsu, the captain of the same vessel.
- Sakura Ando reprises her role as Sumiko Ota, Shikishima’s neighbor who now runs a local orphanage.
- Miou Tanaka returns as Tatsuo Hotta, the former captain of the destroyer Yukikaze.
War reduced Japan to zero, and Godzilla plunged it into minus. Two years have passed since then, and the country has faced agonizing struggles to achieve recovery and finally reclaim its daily life. Just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes, crushing hope in an instant. There is no third time. Everything ends here.
