New SHIN ULTRAMAN Trailer Teases Epic Monster Battles To Brand New Theme Song By Kenshi Yonezu
The hour is nearing as Japanese audiences await Shin Ultraman, the latest from legendary collaborators, Neon Genesis Evangelion‘s Hideaki Anno, and Shinji Higuchi in his follow up from 2016’s Shin Godzilla. Tickets are already on sale ahead of its release slated for May 13 and Toho has just launched a brand new trailer. An alien is out for justice and pursues a rogue criminal to a planet called Earth. To atone for his deeds he leaves the power and transforms a human into a hero for good and Earthly protection. Thus the Ultra Man is born as fashioned after the original early 1960s televisions serial that was on many Japanese households’ TVs. Takumi Saito (Re:Born, Fukushima 50) stars as the lead this time around with Masami Nagasawa and Hidetoshi Nishijima. Toho Pictures, Tsuburaya Productions, Khara Corporation, and Cine Bazar produced the pic which now bares the new theme song, M 87, by […]

Toho’s SHIN ULTRAMAN Hails The Return Of A Legendary Hero In The First Teaser
Currently on the heels of its 55th anniversary since birthing the character in the wheelhouse of Tsuburaya Productions, the newest teaser and poster art for Shin Ultraman is here marking the latest update for the franchise. The film hails from Tsuburaya and Toho, and is written by Hideaki Anno who is also producing the pic via his Studio Khara banner following the film’s announcement two years ago, and features none other than actor Takumi Saito (Kiba: The Fangs Of Fiction, Wotakoi: Love Is Hard For Otaku) as the human host for the Ultraman armor in this throwback incarnation to the original. Higuchi and Anno previously paired on Shin Godzilla which, for some, was still hit-or-miss – a hit especially for its adherence to a more practical, stylish presentation akin to its predecessors. Looks like Shin Ultraman aims for similar aspirations and the teaser certainly whets the appetite. Peep the teaser […]
