Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire–Watch for Our Review

The film is the fifth entry in Legendary Pictures’ MonsterVerse franchise.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was revealed to the public Monday night after the Legendary/Warner Bros. film held its premiere at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles, and the first reactions have already hit social media.

The kaiju film sees the team-up we’ve all been longing to see, as Godzilla and Kong join forces to take down a new threat to the world.

Godzilla vs. Kong filmmaker Adam Wingard is back in the director’s chair for The New Empire, and returning castmembers include Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry and Kaylee Hottle.

British actor Dan Stevens, who worked with Wingard on the thriller The Guest (2014), joins the franchise as a lead in The New Empire. Other newcomers include Fala Chen, Alex Ferns and Rachel House. The script comes from Terry Rossio, Simon Barrett and Jeremy Slater.
