One of the most anticipated sequels of 2026 is upon us. "Godzilla Minus Zero" is arguably the most eagerly awaited sequel in the history of this storied franchise. Directed once again by Takashi Yamazaki, this serves as a sequel to 2023's Oscar-winning surprise smash hit "Godzilla Minus One." But is this really the end of this iteration of the King of the Monsters? Or is it going to set up further sequels somehow?
Credits scenes have become commonplace in the realm of franchise filmmaking, but "Godzilla" hasn't historically been a big participant in that. "Godzilla vs. Kong" almost had a post-credits scene, but it was ultimately scrapped. Be that as it may, these things can never really be ruled out in the modern era. Many viewers will sit through the entirety of the credits even on the off chance that there's something else worth seeing.
Considering this sequel's expected box office success, it wouldn't be surprising if Toho wanted to tee up the ball for further installments. We're here to offer up a spoiler-free guide when it comes to the movie's credits scene situation. Seriously, we're not going to spoil anything whatsoever, so proceed without fear. We're just arming viewers with essential information. With that said, let's get to it.
How many credits scenes does Godzilla Minus Zero have?
Toho International
No, "Godzilla Minus Zero" doesn't have any credits scenes to speak of. There are no mid-credits scenes or post-credits scenes. Whatever director Takashi Yamazaki has to say, he says it before the credits begin to roll. So once the credits do begin, feel free to make a break for the lobby or take that much-needed bathroom break without fear of missing out.
The good news is that it sounds like what happens before the credits roll is going to be worth the time. The reactions to "Godzilla Minus One" have been glowing thus far. It currently stands as one of the best-reviewed movies in the history of the franchise, which spans more than 70 years. The synopsis for the sequel reads as follows:
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.
This movie was also the first-ever Japanese production to be filmed For IMAX, meaning all of that spectacle is getting the red carpet treatment. Since IMAX has proved that it's more important to the box office than ever before, that bodes well for this movie's prospects. This is going to deliver the biggest version of the King of the Monsters in every meaningful sense.
"Godzilla Minus Zero" hits theaters on November 6, 2026.
