The MonsterVerse movies have been steadily scaling up since 2014. Not only has the number of monsters ballooned but also the amount of time they get in the spotlight. And given that “Godzilla vs. Kong” introduces an entire Hollow Earth full of mysterious creatures to the franchise, these monsters are going to need a lot more screen time.
Fortunately, the “Godzilla x Kong” trailer has already shown us that we’ll be seeing an entire community of Kongs, pterodactyl-like creatures soaring through the Hollow Earth, a giant swarm of wolf-looking monsters chasing Kong off a cliff, and more. So it backs up what Adam Wingard is claiming about the film.
While some may have complained about a lack of monsters in the franchise’s early offerings, this next entry in the MonsterVerse will address that head-on. And now that it’s expanded into TV with “Skull Island” on Netflix and “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” on Apple TV+, it shows no sign of slowing down.
