“Godzilla Minus Zero,” the sequel to 2023’s “Godzilla Minus One,” has made $6.7 million in previews. The Japanese movie is expected to beat fellow newcomers at the box office this weekend with a $30 million opening. That’s more than double the $11.4 million opening that “Godzilla Minus One” had three years ago. The first movie, also written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, charged its way to $57 domestically, becoming the biggest live-action Japanese movie in North America, and $113 million globally. It also was the surprise winner of the visual effects Oscar, beating out big-budget, CGI spectacles like “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,” “Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning,” “Napoleon” and “The Creator.”
