Deadline report that the awesome J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man, OZ, Juno, Whiplash) will be joining Tom Hiddleston (The Avengers, Thor when we return to King Kong's home next year. His exact role is unspecified however. The movie recently backed away from its original release date -- and Marvels Doctor Strange -- and will now hit theaters March 10th, 2017. Details on the story are slim, but we do have this brief description. "Previous works have touched on the island, but staying on and exploring this mysterious and dangerous place offers Legendary the opportunity to take audiences deeper inside this rich world with a style and scope that parallels other Legendary productions." Jordan Vogt-Roberts (Kings Of Summer) will direct with a script by John Gatins and Max Borenstein.
