Godzilla Minus One had an incredibly strong box office run at the movie theaters and fans flocked to the cinemas to watch it. That theatrical run has ended and now Toho is teasing the upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release of the film.
The home video teased below will be made available for Japanese consumers, but I think it’s safe to say that the United States will get something very similar.
The movie will be released in both its color and Black and White versions. The home release of Godzilla Minus One is set to hit shelves in Japan on May 1st. There’s no word on when the movie will hit home video in the United States.
The movie was written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, and the story is set in the days after the end of World War II, when Japan is reeling from the devastation left behind after the war. The emotional toll has brought the country to its lowest point.
The story follows the failed kamikaze pilot Kiochi (Ryunosuke Kamiki) and Noriko (Minami Hamabe), a woman pushed into homelessness, taking care of an abandoned child. During this low point Godzilla marches ashore, pulling Japan even deeper into chaos and devastation.
