Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures have confirmed that shooting is now taking place on the untitled Godzilla vs. Kong sequel in Queensland, Australia. There have been conflicting reports about what to expect from the movie, including claims that it won't feature Godzilla. Well, we now know that's not the case and it doesn't sound like we're getting Son of Kong, either!
A brief synopsis (shared by SFFGazette.com) reveals that the "sequel pits the almighty Kong and the fearsome Godzilla against a colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world, challenging their very existence - and our own."
The movie will also "delve further into the histories of these Titans, their origins and the mysteries of Skull Island and beyond, while uncovering the mythic battle that helped forge these extraordinary beings and tied them to humankind forever."
Godzilla vs. Kong director Adam Wingard is back behind the camera, while returning cast members include Rebecca Hall (Iron Man 3), Brian Tyree Henry (Eternals), and Kaylee Hottle (Godzilla vs Kong).
As for the movie's new additions, an impressive ensemble has been assembled that includes Dan Stevens (Legion), Fala Chen (Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), Alex Ferns (The Batman) and Rachel House (Thor: Ragnarok).
Terry Rossio (Godzilla vs Kong), Jeremy Slater (Moon Knight), and Simon Barrett (You’re Next) all worked on the screenplay, while the film will be produced by Mary Parent, Alex Garcia, Eric Mcleod, Brian Rogers, Thomas Tull, and Jon Jashni, with executive producers Josh Grode, Adam Wingard, Jay Ashenfelter, Jen Conroy, Kenji Okuhira and Yoshimitsu Banno.
The Godzilla vs Kong sequel is set to be released on March 15, 2024. We're hoping for more updates on the project in the coming weeks and wouldn't be surprised if some set photos soon start popping up. For the latest, you'll want to keep an eye on SFFGazette.com.
