How tall is Godzilla?
Here’s how tall Godzilla is across all the latest movies. We also dive into a brief history of the most famous lizard around, and how his physical appearance has fluctuated over the years.
Before we pull out our measuring tape and ask our favorite reptile to stand against a wall, we’ll mention there are countlessGodzilla moviesspanning many decades, with a range of different size variations.
Most readers will have watchednew movieslike Godzilla x Kong, or will be delighted they can finallywatch Godzilla Minus Oneat home. If so, you’ll probably be left with a lot of questions about the most iconic movie monster.
Godzilla is 393 feet tall in Godzilla vs Kong, the tallest he’s ever been in live-action. Outside of the MonsterVerse movies, he’susually around 360 feet tall.
In the latestMonsterVerse movie, Godzilla x Kong, he’s the same height again, and is 582 feet long.
Below are the stats on his height in the films where he’s at his biggest, according toWikizillaand official graphics posted on social media by distributors.
Generally, there’s an upward trend. Particularly in the more recentMonsterVerse movies, where he’s been steadily climbing higher into the sky — audiences want more lizard, and they’re getting their wish, clearly.
If you count animated films, Godzilla Earth is the tallest, standing at roughly 984 feet.
In scientific terms, 984 feet means Zilla is a ‘big boi’, officially.
The Godzilla we see in Minus One is164 feet tall.
This is pretty small in comparison to some of the other versions of Godzilla, but it makes sense in the context of the story. In fact, when we first meet him in Minus One, Godzilla is even smaller, but he grows quickly throughout the film. If we ever get a Godzilla Minus One sequel, he will likely be a lot bigger.
Speaking of Minus One, we can tell youwhen Minus Color is coming to Netflix, andwhat the title of the film means. If you’re still curious about the big boy, we can also explainhow old Godzilla is, and whyGodzilla is pink now.
