The King of the Monsters wrote: FUNimation specializes in anime and anime-based films. A lot of their non-anime based films were acquired due to them purchasing the assets of other companies such as ADV Films or having distribution deals with other companies. I don't think FUNimation would be particularly interested in Godzilla: Resurgence unless they have a multi-film deal or Toho seeks them out. A different distributor would probably pick the film up before FUNimation would have the opportunity. That being said, FUNimation would probably do a solid job distributing and localizing the movie. Indeed. FUNimation has a partnership like that with NBCUniversal Entertainment. Since Universal isn't involved in Legendary's Godzilla-Kong universe, and neither of them are going after the distribution rights to Toho's Godzilla movies, it'd be smart if NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan seek out Toho and offered to co-finance 25% of the next three Japanese Godzilla movies. Too would release the film in Japan while Universal would get the international distribution rights.
