Toho's Godzilla is getting another US reboot, this time in 3D by Warner Bros & Legendary Pictures.
The already completed film had a teaser shown at the San Diego Comic-Con 2012 to good reviews. The scenes shown included massive destruction of a city complete with damaged skyscrapers, derailed trains, and dead bodies. The Robert J. Oppenheimer quote "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds." was used for the voice-over of the teaser.
Directed by Gareth Edwards the film supposedly returns Godzilla to his roots with a "realistic" action plot. Edwards has said that he wanted to return the character back to its roots and away from the giant dinosaur direction that Roland Emmerich went with.
The release date is scheduled for May 16, 2014. The film will be released worldwide by Warner Bros except for in Japan where it will be released directly by Toho.
