Godzilla 2 San Diego Comic Con 2014 Preview? Possible Teaser Trailer Video Coming Soon
The 2014 International Comic Con in San Diego California starts next week, and fans are already wondering which movies will be premiering their trailers during the event. There have been rumors that a new installment in the "Godzilla' franchise will steal the limelight with a surprise appearance.
Screenrant.com is predicting that history could repeat itself, given the fact that two years ago at the convention, Legendary Pictures brought an original intellectual property directed by Guillermo del Toro (Pacific Rim) to show attendees in Hall H"”only for the new "Godzilla' film to be shown in a teaser trailer. This year, Legendary will now be showcasing del Toro's "Crimson Peak", so there is a possibility that a sneak peek of "Godzilla 2' might be seen at the Legendary Pictures panel.
However, a "Godzilla 2' release date is unlikely to be anytime soon, given that "Godzilla' director Gareth Edwards has been tapped to direct the new "Star Wars' movie.
Legendary Pictures CEO Thomas Tull stated that "Gareth's filmmaking talent makes him one of his generation's most creative and visionary directors."
"The plan has always been for Gareth to direct a different film before we started on another "Godzilla', but who knew that it would be a "Star Wars' installment?"
Science Fiction reported that the "Star Wars' spin off movie is scheduled to drop on December 16, 2016, and a "Godzilla' sequel will premiere after that.
The Legendary Pictures panel at the 2014 International Comic-Con will take place on Saturday, July 26th from 12:25- 1:10 pm in Hall H.
