Trivia

After the release of 2004's Godzilla: Final Wars, marking the 50th anniversary of the Godzilla film franchise, Toho Co., Ltd. announced that it would not produce any films featuring the Godzilla character for ten years. Director Yoshimitsu Banno (who had directed 1971's Godzilla vs. Hedorah) secured the rights from Toho to make an IMAX 3D short film based on a remake of the Godzilla vs. Hedorah story. Banno and producer Kenji Okuhira then joined with American 3-D Cinematographer and Visual Effects Supervisor Peter Anderson who brought on producer Brian Rogers and the project was then re-negotiated with Toho as a full length 3-D feature film. Also through Anderson, Kerner Optical came on board to produce the film. But after several years of problems with raising needed additional funding, the team approached Legendary Pictures in 2009.
