Godzilla sequel already announced

After three days of release the new Godzilla film has obviously found an enthusiastic audience generating $93 million plus change in gross sales within the US, $38 million of that was on opening day! The film sat high in the number one weekend spot knocking Bad Neighbours down to number two.

What does this mean for Godzilla? You guessed it, with such a strong opening weekend a sequel has already been announced. Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. are moving right ahead with the next film, Gareth Edwards has previously commented on his likely approach if he directs a sequel which would be similar to the first film in that the creatures themselves are kept off screen for significant portions of the film, building up towards dramatic reveals and action sequences in the third act.

So if the new Godzilla film is to your liking, you’ve got plenty more monster action to look forward to!

Leith spent most of his formative years growing up on the coastal fringes of Western Australia without a cinema in sight. There he grew up on the wonders of home rentals before relocating to Perth and gaining access to a proper cinematic experience just in time for the Star Wars Special Edition re-releases. From there Leith's love of movies expanded to volunteering on a Star Wars fan film, reviewing films, writing about film news, and attending film and pop-culture related conventions on the other side of the world. Leith's favourite films are too many to mention but all start with the Star Wars saga, Back to the Future, the Dark Knight trilogy, Indiana Jones, Lord of the Rings and all things Kevin Smith. With an insatiable appetite for all things pop-culture related Leith also has an unhealthy addiction to the world of comics and can often be found buried under a pile of unread back issues madly trying to catch up on a number of titles coming out from mostly DC and Darkhorse.
