Cleopatra Entertainment has released a poster, trailer and images for the upcoming U.S. release of Shin Ultraman, the big screen reboot of the iconic Japanese franchise; watch the trailer below…
As Shin Ultraman begins, we learn the appearance of giant unidentified life forms known as “S-Class Species (Kaiju)” has become commonplace in Japan. The Japanese Government formed a Kaiju defense taskforce known as the SSSP, led by Kimio Tamura (played by Drive My Car’s Hidetoshi Nishijima). After a particularly challenging encounter, a silver giant descends from the sky to rescue the country. Dubbed Ultraman, this giant’s identity and purpose are a mystery. Shin Ultraman is a delightful reimagining of one of Japan’s classic superheroes, full of cosmic twists, charismatic villains, and giant Kaiju.
Shin Ultraman is set for a US VOD release on July 4th and on DVD from July 11th.
