New Ultraman Video Teases Possible 2016 Theatrical Movie

I’m not overly familiar with the “Ultraman” TV series, but I am very aware of its very loyal, very dedicated cult following. Apparently, quite a few people enjoy watching the iconic alien save the great city of Tokyo from annoying kaiju, so much so that the character has endured for decades.

Not surprisingly, a lot of people were quite surprised when a mysterious Ultraman-oriented video appeared online towards the end of July. Although little information is available about the clip as of this writing, it did feature the cryptic numbers “7.7,” which many interpreted as a 2016 release date. And as Orends Range kindly points out, that day happens to be Ultraman creator Eiji Tsuburaya’s birthday. In fact, 2016 is also the 60th anniversary of Ultraman. Very curious, indeed.

Right now, your guess about this Ultraman video is as good as mine. While we’re waiting for some solid answers, let’s just enjoy what is possibly the first trailer for an upcoming Ultraman flick.
