In the 1960s, Godzilla almost had a big-screen showdown with a super-sized Frankenstein's Monster. Here's the story behind the unmade movie.
One scrapped plan for a Godzilla movie saw the King of the Monsters go up against a giant Frankenstein’s Monster. Spanning more than half a century, Godzilla’s cinematic history has seen the kaiju go up against a wide range of opponents.

To deal with the monster, the military would have responded by luring Godzilla into a fight with him, thus making the King of the Monsters the protagonist this time around. However, the plan for their battle never came to fruition, with Toho ultimately deciding to head in a different direction. Toho instead went with Mothra, who also had her own movie, as Godzilla’s next adversary.
How Frankenstein’s Monster Is Connected To Toho’s Godzilla Franchise While Godzilla never did get his fight with Frankenstein’s Monster, the creature still holds a place in his cinematic universe. Toho moved on from Godzilla vs. Frankenstein’s Monster, but kept the basic premise of the film. Reworking Frankenstein’s Monster into a more sympathetic figure, Toho replaced Godzilla with a new kaiju, Baragon, and released Frankenstein vs.
