Grandgear, a new movie produced by J.J. Abrams and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, got its first look at CinemaCon and we've got the details.
Takashi Yamazaki is not slowing down. The filmmaker behind the Oscar-winning “Godzilla Minus One” (and its upcoming sequel “Godzilla Minus Zero”) has a new film, his English-language debut, in the works, called “Grandgear.” And those in attendance at CinemCon just got their first look at all the rock ‘em, sock ‘em robot action. The footage was brief but showed a giant robot fighting a kaiju (a giant monster like those seen in the “Godzilla” movies and countless others). The footage had a decidedly ground-level feeling, somewhat akin to “Cloverfield.” This makes sense considering the producer of “Grandgear” is J.J. Abrams, who also produced “Cloverfield” and its follow-ups, “10 Cloverfield Lane” and “The Cloverfield Paradox.”
Debuting teasers for your next two movies on back-to-back days is wild. There have been conflicting reports as to whether the battle involved two giant robots or a robot and a kaiju. Mystery box already in play?
