2014 Godzilla Movie to Use Suitmation? [UPDATED]

Old unused concept art from Godzilla 2000.

There are rumors that Gareth Edward's 2014 Godzilla will use suitmation, or the act of having the guy inside a suit and do some action in a miniature set.

Because Edwards' Godzilla movie is based on the TOHO original, the license holders for the Godzilla franchise might have required Legendary Pictures to use some suitmation at some point in the movie in addition to CGI effects.

As of this writing, there is no official word coming from Edwards or Legendary Pictures if they have any intention to use suitmation in the 2013 Godzilla movie.

UPDATE: Concept art is actually old. Special thanks to Jim M. Ballard and Agu Steeb for pointing it out.
