Takashi Yamazaki, writer-director of Godzilla Minus One, is confirmed to be working on a follow-up movie, which has sparked interest due to its cliffhanger ending. The anticipated budget exceeds $15 million, thanks to the first installment's success earning over $113 million globally. As the Godzilla franchise expands with collaborations and new releases, Yamazaki shared his cautious stance on the integration of AI in visual effects, recognizing its potential while emphasizing the importance of human creativity. He remains committed to traditional methods amid the evolving landscape of technology.
Right now, it's not in any of our pipelines because of that reason, but the speed at which AI evolves is just so immense that where it goes from here remains to be seen.
Yamazaki confirmed he's currently working on the screenplay as well as the first storyboards for the next Godzilla movie.
Taking home an Oscar for Best VFX also helps Yamazaki's case.
The budget he and his team are anticipating getting from Toho is expected to be higher than $15 million after Godzilla Minus One earned over $113 million globally.
