Now if this is a new movie, this would be the third such reboot after the famed 90s trilogy and the Gamera The Brave film that was released in 2006. Well, technically the fourth if you count Gamera Super Monster as being in it’s own continuity. More news as it becomes available.

1st comment, 1st google plus+ like, this day keeps on geting better! Kaiju movies are rising from their graves once again! This will be a very surprising movie, Gamera is a cool monster so I would be happy if they made it! Hopefully like the 90s!
