The Evolution of Godzilla's Design

“What if I told you—Godzilla wasn’t supposed to be a lizard at all?” Before Godzilla’s

final design, the creators experimented with multiple ideas—some versions looked like giant octopuses,

others like mutated gorillas. The producers wanted something that embodied all prehistoric

nightmares at once. That’s why Godzilla ultimately became a mix of a dinosaur, a dragon,

and an ancient sea creature—something familiar yet impossible. It’s why his silhouette is instantly recognizable

worldwide. Comment “TRUE OG” if you love the original design!
