Comic-Con: Godzilla Stomps Back Into San Diego

Director Gareth Edwards and stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen and Bryan Cranston were at San Diego Comic-Con to tout Godzilla, Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros.' forthcoming reboot of the classic Japanese monster tale.

Footage-wise, they replayed the conceptual footage that was shown here last year. But the panel concluded with a new look at the monster film. And it was glorious.

It was essentially a trailer establishing the tense mood and epic disaster movie scale of the project. We see lots of shots of the U.S. military in action, Olsen and Cranston looking panicked and running around, and then finally a scorpion-like kaiju attack on an airport.

And then BOOM. Godzilla's foot stomps into frame. The monster was obscured in the footage we saw, but there were gradually more reveals along the way.

The film only wrapped shooting this week, but if this sizzle reel was any indication of the trailer to come then you will not be disappointed.

Godzilla opens May 16, 2014.
