Godzilla Minus Zero has already broken one impressive box office record after just three days in theaters.
According to Deadline, with an opening weekend of $31.6 million, Godzilla Minus Zero has broken the record for the best domestic start for Gkids as well as the best opening for a live-action foreign-language film. Sony/Crunchyroll’s Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle still holds the best overall record opening for a foreign-language film at the domestic box office with $70.6 million.
Godzilla Minus Zero‘s domestic start is almost triple that of Godzilla Minus One, which debuted with $11 million back in 2023. The worldwide box office for Minus Zero currently stands at 62 million.
Written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, Godzilla Minus Zero is set in 1949 Japan, two years after the events of Godzilla Minus One. “The country has faced agonizing struggles to achieve recovery and finally reclaim its daily life. Just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes, crushing hope in an instant. There is no third time. Everything ends here,” reads the synopsis.
Godzilla Minus Zero is now playing in theaters.
