Giant Monster Back in Nacho Nacho Vigalondo’s Colossal?
A while back we told you that due to similarities to Godzilla, the next film from director Nacho Vigalondo, entitled Colossal starring Anne Hathaway, would feature a giant robot and not a giant monster rampaging through Japan. Now it looks as if the robot has been nixed and we’re back to giant monster, and that’s okay with us!
Once the decision was made to nix the whole monster thing, this is the synopsis Voltage Pictures put out:
Gloria (Hathaway; pictured) is an ordinary woman who finds herself in an extraordinary circumstance. Tokyo is under attack by a giant robot, and for some strange reason, Gloria is the only person who can stop it. In order to do so, Gloria needs to figure out why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world.
Now, on the Voltage Pictures website, the Colossal description reads as follows:
Hathaway will be playing Gloria in the picture, an ordinary woman who, after losing her job and her fiancé, decides to leave her life in New York to move back to her home town. When news reports start surfacing that a giant monster is destroying the city of Tokyo, Gloria gradually comes to realize that she is connected to these far-off events. In order to prevent further destruction, Gloria needs to determine why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world.
