Gamera's big Hollywood promo piece


Well, it seems that at least one kaiju isn't waiting for Tinseltown's lockdown to end. This promo announcement appeared in all the trade papers this morning, letting every bigwig still in their offices know that Gamera is available for their next blockbuster. Tellingly, the piece was accompanied by an as yet unproven claim: that super turtles can't be infected with the coronavirus. Some insiders are already saying that this looks like a blatant end-run around insurable liability.

One thing's for sure: there's no way that Daiei is happy about this.

Interesting fact: Gamera is apparently represented by a G. Takei at OhMyyyyy Management.
