First ‘Godzilla’ Trailer Lands Tomorrow; New Viral Videos Hit The Web
It seems like we’ve been hearing about Warner Bros. and Legendary’s plans for aGodzillareboot for ever and ever, but this week we’ll finally get to see what’s come of all that talk. The first official trailer will be released tomorrow, Tuesday,December 10, in advance of the creature feature’s summer 2014 bow.
But first, theGodzillamarketing team would like to invite you to explore the film’s world with several viral videos and a mysterious website. Check ‘em out after the jump.
A visit tomutoresearch.netreveals what appears to be an access terminal and file database for the mysterious organization known as M.U.T.O. The site is kind of annoying to navigate, frankly, unless you’ve got a lot of time on your hands, but if you do it’s worth digging around for more clues.
Meanwhile, the official Twitter account@GodzillaMoviehas been dropping some hints as well, including links to an article fromYahoo! Mexicomentioning the “cavernous wells Sima Humboldt and Sima Martel,” another from Chinese siteMtimeabout a Chongqing sinkhole, and still another fromTotal Filmabout Turkmenistan’s so-called “Door to Hell.” See images from each report below.
As you seen above, M.U.T.O. vehicles have been found surrounding each, suggesting that the secretive (and fictional) company is researching these unusual formations — but why? No doubt we’ll have a better idea when the trailer lands tomorrow at 10:00 AM Pacific Time.
Gareth Edwardsdirects the new movie, which starsAaron Taylor-Johnson,Elizabeth Olsen, andBryan Cranston. It opensMay 16, 2014. Here’s a not terribly revealing synopsis:
