Godzilla first appeared in Toho's "Godzilla" (1954), a classic monster movie widely regarded a masterpiece. The work launched a monster franchise that expanded over 64 years with more than 30 films. Toho's line of original movies continues up to the controversial "Shin Godzilla" (2016); the following year, Toho launched its first animated production currently streaming on Netflix. The character has been adapted via numerous international motion pictures, including TriStar Pictures' "Godzilla" (1998) directed by Roland Emmerich ("Independence Day") and Warner Bros. Pictures' and Legendary Entertainment's "Godzilla" (2014), directed by Gareth Edwards ("Rogue One"), re-introducing the character to a new generation and a global audience. Godzilla continues to stomp through popular culture with "Godzilla: King of the Monsters," directed by Michael Dougherty ("Krampus"), released in May 2019, and "Godzilla vs. Kong" planned in 2020.
