First 'Godzilla' (2014) trailer arrives online

The first trailer for Gareth Edwards' upcoming Godzilla reboot has arrived online.

The film, which we first told you about back in July ahead of Comic-Con, draws inspiration from the 1954 Ishirō Honda Japanese classic, rather than the 1998 American adaption of the same name.

Starring Breaking Bad's Bryan CranstonKick-Ass's Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Elizabeth Olsen, among others, Godzilla will return the franchise to its darker, more serious roots. It marks the first Godzilla film since 2004 Japanese language production Godzilla: Final Wars.

Check out the official trailer below:

Godzilla arrives May 16, 2014, through Legendary Pictures, the studio that brought us The Dark KnightPacific Rim, and Man of Steel.
