Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is set for release this March, providing another installment in the ever-evolving depictions of one of the big screen's most famous monsters. And the original kaiju is having quite a moment to mark his 70th anniversary, with the Japanese film Godzilla Minus One getting rave reviews on its release late last year.
In those two recent films alone, our favourite prehistoric reptilian monster looks radically different. In fact, in 70 years, 'Zilla's character has changed numerous times. Having appeared in over 30 feature films and a few animated productions too, it's natural that his look has changed with the times. For decades, the Japanese Godzilla was played by actors wearing suits, then came CGI. But advances in tech are not the only cause for changes to the character design.
