Why It Crackles

Movie Details

The last Godzilla film from Toho, until Godzilla comes out of retirement.

- For the first time ever in a Tôhô-produced Godzilla film, there is an actual location shoot in the USA, mostly in New York City, thanks to Zazou Productions, a Japanese media company based there. However, principal scenes with the policeman and the pimp were shot in Sydney, Australia. Actual NYC sequences were shot at an undisclosed location. Scenes that are supposed to take place in Arizona, however, were shot in Broken Hill, another part of Australia.

- Veteran actor Akira Takarada makes his sixth appearance in a Godzilla film, playing UN Secretary General Naotaro Daigo. His first was in the original Gojira (1954), in which he played Hideto Ogata when he was 19. This is a fitting tribute to the first film from 50 years earlier. He was previously in Godzilla VS. Mothra (1992) as Jôji Minamino.
