\n Also: new trailer for Godzilla Minus Zero, the sequel to Takashi Yamazaki\u2019s kaiju epic, Godzilla Minus One\n <\/p>\n
We got our first look at Prime Video\u2019s new sci-fi series Blade Runner 2099 in July<\/a> at San Diego Comic-Con. With the show\u2019s premiere roughly six weeks away, the streamer unveiled the full trailer this weekend at New York Comic-Con. Co-stars Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer (Euphoria) joined showrunner Silka Luisa (Shining Girls) onstage for the big reveal.<\/p>\n As Luisa described the show<\/a> during the NYCC panel Saturday night:<\/p>\n We are 50 years after [Blade Runner] 2049 and, bad news, the worst has happened. The replicant uprising that has been bubbling up in the films has taken place and the humans have lost. So the creations have surpassed their creators. And the series, the big question it asks is, \u2018What happens when our time as a species ends?\u2019 2099 is taking place at a junction point when one species is ending and a new one is rising. The first film, something I loved about it, was that it was looking at mortality on a micro level. Roy Batty and the other replicants were fighting for more life. This show asks that same question but on a macro level. Mankind\u2014what happens when we realize our time is running out? And are we going to accept that loss? Can we hold on to our humanity during it?<\/p>\n Yeoh stars as Olwen, the dying Replicant, while Schafer plays Cora. The cast also includes Hugo Hamlet as Buster Friendly, as well as Dmitri Abold, Lewis Gribben, Katelyn Rose Downey, Daniel Rigby, Johnny Harris, Amy Lennox, Sheila Atim, Matthew Needham, Tom Burke, and Maurizio Lombardi\u2014all in as-yet-undisclosed roles.<\/p>\n Prime Video will drop all eight episodes of Blade Runner 2099 on November 25, 2026.<\/p>\n Godzilla Minus Zero<\/p>\n We also got a new trailer for Godzilla Minus Zero, the sequel to director Takashi Yamazaki\u2019s gloriously grounded kaiju epic, Godzilla Minus One<\/a>, which became a major international hit and snagged an Oscar for best visual effects.<\/p>\n Godzilla Minus One focused on kamikaze pilot K\u014dichi Shikishima, who struggled with survivor\u2019s guilt after he failed to take action when Godzilla attacked the Japanese base on Odo Island in 1945. K\u014dichi was one of only two survivors and rebuilt a life with a woman named Noriko and the orphaned baby she rescued, Akiko. But then Godzilla re-emerged, and K\u014dichi resolved to die fighting the monster to atone for Odo Island.<\/p>\n \n Credit: Credit:<\/p>\n Toho International<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Spoiler alert: K\u014dichi survived, thanks to Tachibana\u2019s forgiveness and mechanical ingenuity. He reunited with Noriko, who had a strange black bruise on her neck. And we saw a chunk of Godzilla\u2019s remains start to regenerate, leaving things open for the sequel. Per the official synopsis for Godzilla Minus Zero:<\/p>\n War reduced Japan to zero, and Godzilla plunged it into minus. Two years have passed since then, and the country has faced agonizing struggles to achieve recovery and finally reclaim its daily life. Just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes, crushing hope in an instant. There is no third time. Everything ends here.<\/p>\n Most of the main cast from Godzilla Minus One are returning: Ryunosuke Kamiki as K\u014dichi; Minami Hamabe as his wife, Noriko; Sae Nagatani as Akiko; Hidetaka Yoshioka as Kenji Noda, director of the Large-Scale Disaster Response Bureau; Kuranosuke Sasaki as Seiji Akitsu, captain of the Shinsei Maru; Miou Tanaka as Tatsuo Hotta, former captain of the destroyer Yukikaze; Sakura Ando as Sumiko \u014cta, K\u014dichi\u2019s neighbor; and Yuki Yamada as Shir\u014d Mizushima, a Shinsei Maru crewman. The cast also includes Min Tanaka as biologist Kanji Murakami and Masami Nagasawa as Aoyama.<\/p>\n Godzilla Minus Zero hits theaters on November 3, 2026.
