Speaking of this, the US version of "GODZILLA (1998)" actually has a gossip.

Dean Devlin, producer and scripter of the 1998 US version of GODZILLA,
In the magazine "DVD & ブルーレイでーた" in August 2013, I was interviewed and admitted that
The production of GODZILLA (1998) was from the beginning when they wanted to make a reprint of "Atomic Monsters".
(Atomic Monster is a 1953 movie that is considered to be one of the sources of inspiration for Gogira.
Describe the story of a dinosaur that was sleeping because of a nuclear test, and the city was finally killed by the army.
The biggest difference with "Gorgila" is that Godzilla is almost invincible in "Gorgila",
However, this plan failed to get the money and the contract, and then took the internationally-recognized "Gorgila" backdoor listing.
In other words, there is no plan to make "Gorgila" at all, it is a complete fraudulent goods.
