Godzilla Minus Zero premieres at NYFF: screenings and wider release dates

Takashi Yamazaki's sequel has its world premiere in New York on September 26, with two further festival screenings before its November theatrical openings.

Godzilla Minus Zero makes its world premiere on Saturday 26 September as the 64th New York Film Festival's Spotlight Gala. Film at Lincoln Center lists a 6:00 p.m. New York-time screening with a Q&A featuring director Takashi Yamazaki and actors Ryunosuke Kamiki and Minami Hamabe. The listing also offers festival

screenings on Sunday 27 September at 2:15 p.m. and Wednesday 30 September at 12:30 p.m. All three times are local to New York; consult the live listing for current seats, venue and access details. The first screening is a festival premiere, not the general cinema opening . TOHO's release information schedules Japan for

3 November and North America for 6 November , with GKIDS distributing in North America. It says dates for other territories will be announced separately. A UK date should therefore not be inferred from the North American one. What the festival listing confirms Yamazaki returns after Godzilla Minus One . The festival

describes a 135-minute Japanese-language film with English subtitles , set in 1949 , two years after the earlier story, and following the Shikishima family. Those are the organiser's preview details; this is a screening and release guide, not a review or a claim that Mythscribe has seen the film. The September 27

listing advertises another Q&A with Yamazaki, while the two actors are listed for that screening's introduction only. For anyone planning to attend, NYFF's ticket page explains venue-specific prices, standby lines and occasional rush tickets. Availability can change before showtime, so use the film's live schedule

rather than an old ticket snapshot. Its September 30 screening also has a limited poster giveaway for the first 50 ticket holders, according to the film page. Headline image: official film still supplied in Film at Lincoln Center's NYFF64 press materials; image credit: courtesy of GKIDS.
