Michael Dougherty revealed that another post credit scene was planned, written, storyboarded and even had locations scouted and costumes ready to go, but it was ultimately scrapped, while he didn't specify why it never happened, he did go into detail about what it would have entailed and his plans to delve deep into Toho mythology in order to introduce a new version of the Mothra Twins. Zhang Ziyi's character and it's set in the aftermath of the film. She's in Tokyo and goes into a restaurant bar and goes down a set of stairs and ends up in what looks like an ancient temple that is eerily similar to the one seen at the beginning of the film in China. Then, she meets up with her identical twin sister and the twin sister is expressing her concerns about whether they should go through with this or not, that these girls are so young, and they're not sure if they're ready. Ziyi says, 'So were we once' and they emerge into this giant chamber where we reveal a second Mothra egg and in front of that are two little girls, maybe three or four years old, also identical twins and they're singing the Mothra song to the egg to get it to hatch. Dougherty was heartbroken that they didn't get to shoot that because it would have confirmed that she was playing the Mothra twins which was a deep cut reference from the original films.
