Godzilla Minus One director Takashi Yamazaki wants to make a film that is an answer or response to Oppenheimer


Godzilla Minus One director Takashi Yamazaki discusses the relevance between his monster movie and Oppenheimer concerning the atomic bomb

Set in the ruins of post-World War II Tokyo, Takashi Yamazaki’s Godzilla Minus One introduces the famous lizard monster as a new crisis baptized in the horrific power of the atomic bomb. And in some ways, the original 1954 Godzilla was created with that same backdrop in the wake of World War II, asking what it means for these superpowers to develop so many nuclear warheads,” Yamazaki told MovieMaker. Legendary’s ongoing MonsterVerse series of movies and TV featuring the green-scaled baddie hasn’t stopped audiences from flocking to see the Japanese-produced Godzilla Minus One since it landed on American shores in early December.
