I think Godzilla should be a girl in this movie because if she ends up dieing there will be a egg at the end like in Godzilla (Zilla 1998).

I agree 100%! A female Godzilla being able to asexually reproduce 1 big child to 'continue the legacy' would be great!

It's been confirmed Godzilla will be male in this film.

@ KAIJUSAURUS - Godzilla has never been given a definitive gender. In fact, it's been ambiguous throughout the entire history of the character. Because the character is masculine in what it does and how it looks, Godzilla has been referred to as male. However, the only confirmed gender that Godzilla has ever received was in the 1998 version when he was confirmed male by Broderick while having the ability to reproduce asexually. So we don't know if Godzilla will be male or female in this movie. In all likelihood, the character will be referred to as male but not confirmed. How do you confirm the gender of a Kaiju without any genitals? You can't. Again, Godzilla will likely be referred to as male, but there has been no confirmation on its true gender.

@KYERO You are pretty much right. I think it's silly we are even debating Godzilla's gender. Just enjoy him for who he is.

@Kyero, You make a good point (one that I had forgotten about). I remember reading that the Japanese version of the original 1954 Gojira the gender was left ambiguous. The characters used "it" terms to refer to the monster. Seeing that the 2014 American counterpart is largely inspired from this film, it would be extremely fitting to revive this aspect of it. That way it's true to the original concept and lets the fan imagine our Godzilla's gender to be s they wish it.

I believe in Jesus Christ, who's my Lord and Savior.

Godzilla gender while not explicitly stated, is generally accepted to be male. The production teams refers to him as male in both the remake and the original movies. So Godzilla is sort of unofficially considered a male, at least as far as the production crews are concerned. I'd also like to point out that genitals are not needed to determine the sex of an animal, a lot of animals gender can't be determined from out war appearance, even in zoo's some animals require DNA testing to determine the sex. While I'm know early films referred to Godzilla as "it" rather than He or she, I think there are instances in late films where Godzilla is referred to as male.

If is its reffered to, he should be a male. And im more than sure that if his gender is reffered, Edwards would make him male. And he shouldnt produce asexually, thats simply idiotic. And the less bridges to that horrible 98 movie, the better. He shouldnt have an offspring like that, and he wont die, Edwards himself said he was already THINKING about a sequel.

I wouldn't want him to be a female, if ever, perhaps another Godzilla that's a female would appear.

Godzilla in the 2014 film is most likely male. Have you seen his under side?
