Ahead of its US release on December 1, a new trailer has gone live for Godzilla Minus One. Like the previous trailer, this new teaser of the monster movie only offers a handful of new Godzilla footage, but when the king of the monsters appears, he brings untold devastation with him.
Set in post-World War II Japan, Godzilla Minus One follows several characters as they witness the arrival of Godzilla in a country that is still reeling from its defeat in the global conflict. With its army a shell of its former self, its navy in the process of being dismantled, and the US refusing to step in and assist Japan in case it provokes the Soviet Union into a new war, Japan is on its own and unprepared for Godzilla.
That doesn’t mean that Japan isn’t ready to fight back against Godzilla, but when you’re facing a bipedal engine of mass destruction, there’s only so much that conventional weaponry can do against the rampaging kaiju.
