Sixty years after Toho’s original 1954 classic, the “King of the Monsters” once again dominates the big screen in Godzilla, directed by Gareth Edwards. A relative newcomer with just one acclaimed Indie film under his belt, Edwards was tasked with leading an immense production team on a creative journey that would end with the epic rebirth of a truly iconic character. Godzilla: The Art of Destruction chronicles that journey in vivid detail, from the intensive process of redesigning Godzilla to the uniquely dynamic shoot and the challenging post-production process.

Packed with previously unseen art that illustrates the incredible design process undertaken to arrive at the most thrilling and evocative version of the Godzilla character, Godzilla: The Art of Destruction also showcases the stunning concept pieces, storyboards, sketches, and other artwork that formed the basis for the film’s breathtakingly atmospheric visuals. 

Also featuring in-depth interviews with Edwards, the film’s exceptional creative team, and the A-list cast—including Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Bryan Cranston—Godzilla: The Art of Destruction charts every aspect of the movie’s creation, from costume design to visual effects to the creation of Godzilla’s natural enemies, the MUTOs.
