Here's the latest addition folks. It's another musician this time, and one who has a few credited recordings at the legendary Abbey Road studios. #20.

Bump for Second Coming in the future.

I also found the below; I never paid much attention to the cast page on the Shin Goji website, but I think it updated.

http://shin-godzilla.jp/img/cast/txt_cast.png

It's an image file, but I pulled it from the shin godzilla website and under "Cast"

This is pretty awesome. I am checking out the gaijin names on the list because I can't read Japanese.


Bob Werley: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4962261/?ref_=rvi_nm
Charles Glover (IMDB has three people with this name, but this one has several Japanese credits, and appeared in Mitchell with Joe Don Baker): http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0323102/
No profile for Christiane Brew.
Dennis Gunn is the voice of Wolf Hawkfield in Virtua Fighter: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0348168/
There are 30 different people named Don Johnson on IMDB, so I'm not sure which is correct. I doubt it's the old star of Miami Vice, but who knows at this point?
I can't find anything with names as simple as Gil, Inge M, Markus M, Robert Z, or Smith Steven.
There are about 6 people named Tom Dolan, so I'm not sure which is correct.

This is sort of old news, but August Ragone just revealed accurate translations of the main cast's characters:

-Hiroki Hasegawa as *Rando Yaguchi*, deputy chief cabinet secretary
-Yutaka Takenouchi as *Hideki Akasaka*, Aide to the Prime Minister
-Satomi Ishihara as *Kayoko Ann Patterson*, Special Envoy for the President of the United States

A whole bunch of other actors were announced for "supporting and cameo appearances":
-Kengo Kora (The Mourner)
-Ren Osugi (Hana-bi)
-Akira Emoto (Shall We Dance?)
-Kimiko Yo (Departures)
-Jun Kunimura (Gojoe)
-Mikako Ichikawa (Rampo Noir)
-Pierre Taki (Samurai Fiction)
-Takumi Saito (13 Assassins)
-Keisuke Koide (Cyborg She)
-Arata Furuta (Apartment 1303)
-Atsuko Maeda (The Complex)

...And apparently there are even more. Source.

Wow, Toho went all out. Between special effects and actors/actresses, I wonder how much this will end up costing them.

Yeah, I'm wondering that as well. If they spent 20m on this like GFW, they really need to try to get then to the United States. It's EASY money for both Toho and whoever distributes it(should be WB..).

I expected a flurry of additions to IMDB today, but so far there's only a single new, and possibly false, cast addition.

Here is our #22nd crew member. There will be stunts in the Resurgence.

Added in 13 hours 34 minutes 56 seconds:
Up to #24 now with some more non-Japanese musicians. Mair's biography, and Rhodes' credits, is another suggestion of London-based soundtrack recording.

music scoring mixer Simon Rhodes (Spectre, Skyfall, Avatar) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0722529/

Added in 13 hours 5 minutes 22 seconds:

Added in 17 hours 4 minutes 37 seconds:
I thought such an info drop would get at least one reaction.

Anyway here's another. #55 names now on IMDB's version of the cast. Like Nozomi de Lencquesaing and Alex Hormigo, Chinnery is not on the #328 list above. Perhaps he is involved with dubbing, perhaps it's just an error.


Mark Chinnery as "Newscaster (voice)" (1 episode Kamen Raider Gaim, 1 episode Pokemon Get TV, Jumper) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3194537/


Back down to #24 crewmen, as one of Hideaki Anno's writing credits has been removed.

Added in June 20

Thanks a lot fellas! I expect there to be much more information, since the movie is now out and IMDB is seriously lagging behind.

New info today as the site credits actor #56:

2 time Award of the Japanese Academy nominee Mansai Nomura as Godzilla (The Floating Castle, Akira Kurosawa's Ran, Onmyoji 1+2) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1334850/

and crew members #51:

musician Daniel Bhattacharya (Attack on Titan parts 1+2, Warcraft, LOTR: Return of the King) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm6642068/

viola Rachel Bolt (Warcraft, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, two Lord of the Rings) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1020391/

Neither are on the crew and cast lists released earlier.

Added in 1 hour 27 minutes 44 seconds:
I guess I was wrong about the relative speed of new ShinGoji info forthcoming, but at last we finally have some today! It's August 23rd and here is actor #57 of the 328.
On June 8th's mega update, I wrote:MARKUS M

Markus Muller as "German Scientist." http://www.imdb.com/name/nm5460030/

Added in 5 hours 39 minutes 30 seconds:
It's September 4th. No new names have been added (we're still at #57 actors and #51 crew), but quite a few character names have been added to IMDB. Previously, most folks had been credited only with their characters' job title.
