Overview

• GKIDS and Toho will present SHIN GODZILLA: ORTHOchromatic in select U.S. theaters on August 31, with tickets on sale now.
• This is the first nationwide U.S. theatrical presentation of the orthochromatic version after a prior 2023 debut and physical-media release in Japan.
• The black-and-white treatment uses orthochromatic grading that deepens blacks and darkens reds, reshaping the movie’s visual impact.
• Conceived by directors Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi with associate director Katsuro Onoue, the version originated in Toho’s 70th-anniversary program.
• The engagement follows a strong 4K remaster reissue that earned about $2.4 million in four days and mirrors the Minus Color playbook used for Godzilla Minus One.
