Overview

• Tickets are on sale now for a one-day nationwide engagement in the United States on August 31.
• The release follows GKIDS’ North American 4K remaster of Shin Godzilla earlier in August.
• Conceived by Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi, the ORTHOchromatic version originated in Japan’s 2023 curated re-release led by Takashi Yamazaki, with associate director Katsuro Onoue involved.
• The black-and-white processing emphasizes starker contrast and deeper blacks, with orthographic stock typically rendering reds much darker.
• The event-style rollout echoes Godzilla Minus One/Minus Color’s U.S. engagement, which earned $2.6 million during its one-week run.
