Summary One of Japan's most iconic sci-fi franchises is coming back in a major way with Ultraman: Rising. First created by Eiji Tsuburaya, Tetsuo Kinjo, Tohl Narita and Kazuho Mitsuta, the franchise primarily revolves around the alien race known as the Ultras who venture out to various planets throughout the galaxy in order to maintain peace and prevent attacks from alien invaders and various kaijus.

Hawaii Five-O and You cast alum Christopher Sean leads the Ultraman: Rising English-language cast as Ken alongside Sixteen Candles' Gedde Watanabe as Professor Sato, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters' Tamlyn Tomita, Star Wars animation voice vet Keone Young and Julia Harriman. The movie also marks a unique partnership between Tsuburaya Productions, Netflix and Industrial Light Magic, bringing the franchise to a wider international audience.

Christopher Sean: I think we were lucky to be able to reinvent such an iconic character for a new generation. I was very nervous and stepping into the role, and I've said this before, I'll say it over and again, I really relied on mama and papa , because they are incredible. They're amazing, they're extremely loving. The team, as well, Shannon, John, Lisa, Tom Makiko, the list goes on.

Finding The Character's Dynamics Relied On A "Total Trust" In The Movie's Directors With every character balancing a sense of goofiness along with serious character development, finding these layers proved to be a unique challenge for the Ultraman: Rising cast, particularly as they were given the script only pages at a time and out of order, leaving them uncertain of what they were actually performing much of the time.
