Toho’s Shin Godzilla got a new 4K remaster this year, and in the wake of being unleashed in theaters and on physical media, the 4K remaster is now streaming for the first time.
The film is streaming in its original Japanese language with subtitles, including restored text cards and a 4K remaster that has never before been released in North America.
In Shin Godzilla, “The Prime Minister of Japan pleads with the public to remain calm after a horrific creature of tremendous size makes landfall in the city, leaving death and destruction in its wake. Then, it evolves into the King of all Monsters… Godzilla.”
Hideaki Anno (“Neon Genesis Evangelion” franchise) and Shinji Higuchi (Shin Ultraman) directed the film from a screenplay by Anno, with visual effects by Higuchi.
Shin Godzilla was the first Godzilla film produced by Toho since 2004’s Godzilla Final Wars and became a massive hit upon release, amassing 11 Japan Academy Prize nominations, and took home seven wins, including Best Picture and Director of the year. It became the highest-grossing Japanese Godzilla film ever; that is, until Godzilla Minus One surpassed it.
