GODZILLA x KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE Chinese Trailer Unleashes Even More Titans And Highlights The Skar King

We're less than two weeks away from seeing Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire rampage into theaters, and a new Chinese trailer and poster for the Godzilla vs. Kong sequel has just rampaged online (via SFFGazette.com). 

In that, we see even more new Titans, one of which is shown battling Godzilla, and the monstrous Skar King. He'll be the titular duo's main opponent in the movie and looks suitably formidable. We also see the pint-sized Suko, a Titan believed to be the villain's son who will likely align himself with Godzilla and Kong.

Visually, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire looks like a wild ride for Kaiju fans and, while many fans miss the grounded nature of movies like Godzilla and Kong: Skull Island, the promise of all this monster vs. monster action should more than satisfy the majority! 

Earlier this year, director Adam Wingard was asked about the franchise's monstrous big bad, the Skar King, and teased, "What’s interesting about this new film is that we go in a direction that I don’t think this series has ever seen before, which is that the Skar King is, in a way, the closest that the human threat has ever been juxtaposed onto a titan itself."

"The Skar King almost represents an upscaled version of the worst parts of humanity, just as Kong represents some of the best parts of humanity," the filmmaker added. "I would say the Skar King is the greatest threat that we’ve seen in these movies. It’s really going to take a full team together to bring it down because it’s too big for just one titan!"

You can treat yourselves to a closer look at the new Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire trailer and poster in the X posts below.

The epic battle continues!  Legendary Pictures' cinematic Monsterverse follows up the explosive showdown of 'Godzilla vs. Kong' with an all-new adventure that pits the almighty Kong and the fearsome Godzilla against a colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world, challenging their very existence—and our own. 'Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire' delves further into the histories of these Titans and their origins, as well as 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 x Kong: The New Empire stars returning Godzilla vs. Kong actors Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, and Kaylee Hottle alongside Dan Stevens (Legion), Alex Ferns (The Batman), and Fala Chen (Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings).

The screenplay is by Terry Rossio (Godzilla vs. Kong) and Simon Barrett (You’re Next) and Jeremy Slater (Moon Knight), from a story by Rossio & Wingard & Barrett, based on the character "Godzilla" owned and created by TOHO Co., Ltd.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire rampages into theaters on March 29.

@bkmeijer1 - I do get tried of national landmarks in all films. Plenty of beautiful lost costly places could be used. In one of my fav giant monster books Project Maigo User Comment Image there is a minor scene described by Vietnamese man working down by small river by some mountains. The location is unremarkable but how he describes how it appears 2 parts of the mountain are essentially moving towards him. Dumbfounded by the site he and a nearby village are trampled.

A minor scene in an otherwise stereotypical giant monster work it always stuck out in my mind as I want to see it happen on the big screen. No big landmarks but more how monsters avoiding humanity would actually be hiding in no name locations.

@EZBeast - that's exactly what I want from big monster/mech action as well. So much they can do with that as part of normal landscapes instead of just having them run around famous landmarks

@EZBeast - That's why I adored 10 Cloverfield Lane and Nope. This massive organic ship haunting over a farm causing terror and destruction.

I don't know who's at fault, the animators or the directors but I'm sick to death of seeing creatures roar every 5 seconds. They're entirely CG, surely you can get more out of their performance than the same 4 emotes.

@HashTagSwagg - is this in reference to trailers? Cuz they emoted a lot in Godzilla vs Kong.
Godzilla smirked when he burnt Kong... It was kinda creepy...
But also they're giant monsters fighting... Of course they'll roar.

Title is misleading.

By “even more titans” you mean, one more titan, or another titan.

@JobinJ - no he’s correct. I’m there you just can’t see me

@JobinJ - appreciate that. I almost let the title hype me up but seeing "Wilding" also let me know to temper my expectations

I’m so excited for this even if the Scar King reminds me of Beast Man from Masters Of The Universe. This is just the kind of mindless popcorn eating fun I like having with big monster movies. 👍🙌

"many fans miss the grounded nature of movies like Godzilla and Kong: Skull Island"
They weren't that grounded except in their presentation perhaps... Every entry gradually got into the bizarre a bit more.

Kong: Skull Island introduced the Hollow Earth and a wider variety of creatures.
KoTM confirmed alien life and introduced the Orca device.
Godzilla vs Kong upped the tech and confirmed wormhole type entrances to the hollow earth.

The grounded approach only worked for those two movies because they were set before humanity at large knew about monsters.
There's no reason to go back unless it's in projects taking place before either of those two.

Rather than stoop to attempting insults, what would you want and how do you think it would work best?
