This year’s Tokyo Film Festival closes this evening with the world premiere of Godzilla Minus One, the latest edition in Toho’s monster franchise, directed by filmmaker Takashi Yamazaki.
Alongside his directing duties on Godzilla Minus One, Yamazaki also wrote the screenplay and served as director of VFX. Set in Japan post-WW2, the pic opens as Godzilla appears and plunges the country into a negative state.

Godzilla Minus One is set for a local release on Nov 3 from Toho, while the Glasgow-based distribution outfit Anime Limited will release the pic in UK and Irish cinemas on December 15.
