Tom Hiddleston (Thor: Ragnarok) will be on Jimmy Kimmel Live! tonight to debut the brand new theatrical trailer for Jordan Vogt-Roberts' upcoming monster movie, Kong: Skull Island

The new trailer is expected to run 2:24 and will finally drop the veil on the titular beast. There's also a very strong possibility that we'll get to see some of Skull Island's other oversized monsters, which should include the reptilian beast we were teased with earlier this morning. 

The film, which will serve as the second installment in Legendary Pictures' budding Godzilla/Kong universe, stars Hiddleston alongside an all-star cast that consists of Samuel L. Jackson (xXx: The Return of Xander Cage), John Goodman (Transformers: The Last Knight), Brie Larson (Captain Marvel), Jing Tian (The Great Wall), Toby Kebbell (A Monster Calls), John Ortiz (God Particle), Corey Hawkins (24: Legacy), Jason Mitchell (Straight Outta Compton), Shea Whigham (Vice Principals), Thomas Mann (Me and Earl and the Dying Girl), Terry Notary (Warcraft), and John C. Reilly (Guardians of the Galaxy). 

Check out the posters below:





Kong: Skull Island reimagines the origin of the mythic Kong in a compelling, original adventure from director Jordan Vogt-Roberts. In the film, a diverse team of explorers is brought together to venture deep into an uncharted island in the Pacific—as beautiful as it is treacherous—unaware that they’re crossing into the domain of the mythic Kong.

I like the design, but King Kong is way too big. And it's obvious that the only reason he's THAT huge is so he can fight Godzilla.

@Darkknight2149 - and the problem is?

@Darkknight2149 - It's King [frick]ing Kong, he's meant to be big. Theyre not gonna have Godzilla fight some tiny Chimpanzee

@IAmNemesis @LuitenantDekker -
Yes, he's meant to be big but not anywhere near as big as he is in this film. And the problem with this whole King Kong/Godzilla cinematic universe is that these films are being forced into a cinematic universe just so the two can fight.

The King Kong seen in the original Kong vs. Godzilla film was not the same King Kong from the King Kong film. That was Toho's own version of King Kong created for the fight film. But because every studio now wants to cash in on this cinematic universe trend...

Also, what comes after the King Kong vs. Godzilla reboot? What purpose will this cinematic universe serve after that?

@Darkknight2149 - How is that different from any cinematic universe or versus movie? All the characters are changed to interact with the others so as one side isn't all powerful or too weak.

Nemesis is a huge toho fan and I knew this and while its a different take on Kong Nemesis has to ask who freaking cares if its bigger? Its a movie about Monsters living in the real world. Nemesis wouldn't care if Kong sprouted tentacles, its a movie...

Finally you do realize that a monster cinematic universe already exists right? Godzilla has fought the likes of Rodan, Kong, Mothra, etc. and they were all separate properties but came together for the same reason ALL CROSSOVERS do,for profit and entertainment. The future for it will have stronger enemies for them to fight, team ups, and possibly crossovers with other properties.

In a world filled with too many superhero movies Nemesis says BRING ON THE MONSTERS!!!!!!!

@IAmNemesis -
Yes, a cinematic universe already exists with Toho's monsters (including their specific version of King Kong), but not with the actual King Kong movie characters. But two things:

1. Since when do they change the characters every versus film? I don't know which ones you have been watching, but Freddy and Jason in Freddy vs. Jason were the exact same characters they were in their solo films, Alien and Predator were still Alien and Predator in Alien vs. Predator, Frankenstein and the Wolfman in Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman were exactly the same as they were in their solo films, and (if anything), Batman was probably LESS powerful in Batman v Superman than he is in the comic and I doubt his skill set will change in the upcoming solo film.

2. And even if, hypothetically, the characters were changed for the Versus film, they certainly wouldn't stay that way in the solo films (especially in the ones made BEFORE the fight movie). And the only reason King Kong is in the same cinematic universe seems to be just so they can make the Kong vs. Godzilla reboot. Other than that, they have no reason to be in the same cinematic universe. And if they want King Kong to appear in the Godzilla films, then why does it have to be in the same universe as the main King Kong films at all? Why not just introduce a separate version of Kong in those films instead of altering King Kong in the main films just so he can fight Godzilla. And the problem now is that King Kong is going to be way too overpowered in the main King Kong series.

@Darkknight2149 - Freddy was way, way more powerful in the real world in FREDDY VS. JASON then he was in any previous A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET film. Heck, in his previous appearance he was defeated handily by his unpowered daughter.

That didn't bother me, because FREDDY VS. JASON is still awesome (and because the right character still won - Jason).

Just like it won't bother me that they made a gigantic ape monster more gigantic.

@Darkknight2149 - Nemesis will agree with you on the movies you listed, Nemesis was referring to more along the lines of comics and other media, however if you're saying that comicbook characters havent been changed to make them more suitable for their movies then we can get into that another time.

Again that goes back to that all crossovers are strictly made for prophet and entertainment. There is nothing deeper that would need to be shared between their universes that is needed. That goes for ANY universe. Be thankful that they happen and do your best not to look at it any harder then that.

@RKSDooM - Nemesis appreciates your outlook

Not really. In Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, Freddy Krueger retained a number of powers when in the real world. In Freddy vs. Jason, he had no powers what so ever (aside from not dying after getting his head cut off).

RKSDooM - 11/16/2016, 9:19 PM
@Darkknight2149 - Freddy takes an obscene amount of damage from Jason in FREDDY VS. JASON, and is suddenly a freakin master combatant in the real world. Again, one only has to compare his fight with Jason - an unkillable, super strong monster - with his fight with his daughter - an utterly normal counselor for troubled teens who probably never got into a real fight in her life - to see how dramatically they powered Krueger up.

@Darkknight2149 - Is it a forced Cinematic Universe when they did it before, not to mention decades earlier than before the term Cinematic Universe became common?

Darkknight2149 - 11/17/2016, 12:51 PM
@AMrSundayGirl58 -
As I mentioned earlier, the King Kong seen in King Kong vs. Godzilla was Toho's own version of King Kong, not the same King Kong from the original movies.

@Darkknight2149 - Isn't that what this is, though? It may not be Toho, or it could be? Anyway, this is independent of the other movies, in that They come from Universal Studios, while this King Kong is part of Legendary, like the modern Godzilla.

Well, this is indeed intended to be in a cinematic universe with the 2014 Godzilla reboot. But from what I understand, Skull Island is a reboot of the franchise, meaning that this IS the main King Kong series of films now.
