The new theatrical trailer for Godzilla Minus Zero begins by confirming that Godzilla was not completely destroyed. It then presents scenes from a new kaiju extermination operation involving the Disaster Response Agency. The poster released alongside it features Godzilla surrounded by blue energy and illuminated by golden rays from above.

The film is set in 1949, two years after the upheaval of Godzilla Minus One. The Shikishima family from the previous film faces a new disaster that descends upon the everyday life they had struggled to regain. The previous film’s cast returns, including Ryunosuke Kamiki as Koichi Shikishima and Minami Hamabe as Noriko Shikishima, while Masami Nagasawa also joins as weather forecaster Makoto Aoyama.

Following its world premiere at the Spotlight Gala of the 64th New York Film Festival on September 26, it will open theatrically in Japan on November 3 and in North America through GKIDS on November 6.
