Anne Hathaway’s new monster movie Colossal slapped with lawsuit by Godzilla creators

Last week brought word that Anne Hathaway would soon be starring in Colossal, a new film that’s being touted as “Godzilla meets Being John Malkovich.” It seems the rightsholders of the Godzilla franchise, Japanese company Toho, are none too happy about the monster lizard’s name and likeness being attached to the project.

Earlier today, Toho filed a lawsuit against Voltage Pictures, the production company behind the upcoming feature, for copyright and trademark infringement. According to the complaint, Colossal’s filmmakers “are brazenly producing, advertising, and selling an unauthorized Godzilla film of their own.” The new movie supposedly focuses on a woman (Hathaway) who believes she is spiritually connected to a giant lizard that’s wreaking havoc on Tokyo.

While the plot itself already sounds quite familiar, Toho point to specific instances in which those involved with the flick have directly invoked the Godzilla moniker. In a 2014 interview with the Colossal’s writer and director Nacho Vigalondo, he’s quoted as describing the script as “the cheapest Godzilla movie ever, I promise. It’s going to be a serious Godzilla movie, but I’ve got an idea that’s going to make it so cheap that you will feel betrayed.”
