The 1998 film Godzilla is being removed from Netflix next month. This American take on the classic Japanese monster presents a unique version of the famous creature, which remains a well-known and beloved figure in movie history.
Godzilla (1998) is leaving Netflix next month
Godzilla will exit from Netflix’s library on March 1, 2026 (via What’s on Netflix).
Each month, Netflix removes some movies and shows because their streaming licenses expire. This film is one of those titles, and subscribers have until the end of the month to watch it before it’s no longer available.
Roland Emmerich directed and co-wrote the screenplay for the movie, along with Dean Devlin. The film stars Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno, Maria Pitillo, Hank Azaria, Kevin Dunn, Michael Lerner, and a number of other talented actors.
The 1998 film Godzilla received generally unfavorable reviews when it was first released. On Rotten Tomatoes, critics gave it a 20% rating, while audiences scored it slightly higher at 28%. Despite the negative reception, the movie was a commercial success, earning over $379 million worldwide.
I’ve been a Godzilla fan for ages, and it’s amazing to think this iconic monster was first brought to life by Japanese director Ishirō Honda way back in 1954! He really created something special that’s still popular today.
TriStar Pictures secured the rights to create a Godzilla film from Toho and initially intended it to be the first in a series of three movies. But the production faced many difficulties along the way.
Devlin once discussed plans for a three-movie Godzilla series, stating that the second film would be quite different from the first, and a third would follow if the second was successful (according to Sci-Fi Japan). However, due to issues with how the franchise was managed, the studio ultimately cancelled the trilogy and allowed the rights to expire in 2003.
Godzilla has been reimagined in many films and TV shows, and he’s returning soon in the second season of Apple TV+’s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. This series is connected to the larger Monsterverse from Warner Bros. Pictures and will debut on February 27, 2026.
