The first official footage from director Gareth Edwards’ “Godzilla” actually premiered at Comic-Con 2012 but fans who weren’t in San Diego at the event never got to see it. This year, it will be different.

Above is the first Comic-Con poster for the film, courtesy of IGN.

For a movie that you might think is beyond any possibility of reinvention, the artwork sure is surprising –and pretty amazing, as well.

Below is a video released by Legendary Pictures ahead of Comic-Con, with director Edwards teasing fans about the many surprises they have in store for them.

“Godzilla” stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Ken Watanabe, Juliette Binoche, David Strathairn, Bryan Cranston, and Sally Hawkins.

Lots of big names for a “monster flick,” right? This is why I believe this “Godzilla” will be different from all previous incarnations.
