Godzilla Minus One took theaters and kaiju fans by storm upon release, and it did so well that the filmmakers are putting a unique spin on it. Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color is a new, special black-and-white edition of the original film. Starting on January 26, this special version of the film will hit North American theaters for a limited time.
In an announcement blog post, the film’s director, VFX supervisor, and screenwriter Takahashi Yamazaki stated, “And now I am very pleased to be able to release a black-and-white version for North America as well. Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color will bring a new and visceral experience to audiences and I hope they will tremble with a new kind of terror.” Yamazaki went into a bit of the process of creating this version of the movie. He explained, “The colorist took the care and the time to go through a careful and very complex process. The black-and-white images make Godzilla look very realistic and documentary-like, which leads to even more fear.” This special edition will add a new edge to the already well-received movie.

Godzilla Minus One first premiered in Japan on November 3, 2023. The film hit U.S. theaters almost a month later on December 1, 2023. It is set in post-WWII Japan. The country is facing a new crisis like it has never seen: a monster resembling a dinosaur, mutated by the atomic bomb and wreaking deadly havoc. Godzilla Minus One has earned over $51 million in the domestic box office, and over $98 million overall.
The blog post included that “all versions of Godzilla Minus One” will be “leaving theaters after February 1,” so go see the film while you can! Theaters such as Regal and Cinemark are still showing the original version, and many more will be airing the black-and-white special, so find your tickets here or call ahead for showtimes.
