As Monarch embarks on a perilous mission into uncharted terrain and unearths clues to the Titans\u2019 origins, a human conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures, both good and bad, from the face of the earth forever.<\/em><\/p><cite><em>Godzilla vs. Kong<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The epic adventure will pit two of the greatest icons in motion picture history against one another \u2013 the fearsome <strong>Godzilla<\/strong> and the mighty <strong>Kong<\/strong> \u2013 with humanity caught in the balance. The most recent film in Legendary\u2019s&nbsp;MonsterVerse,&nbsp;<strong><em>Godzilla: King of the Monsters<\/em><\/strong>, hit theaters last summer. It ended with Godzilla taking his rightful place as the ruler of all Titans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Godzilla: King of the Monsters<\/em><\/strong> disappointed financially, grossing only $385.9 million USD against a budget estimated to be as high as $200 million USD. However, the film was well received by fans for its high-octane Titan fights and beautiful-yet-hellish Titan reveals in the film. Next year, Godzilla and King Kong will also fight Marvel Studios\u2019&nbsp;<strong><em>Eternals<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;(which opens on November 6) for box office glory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Adam Wingard <\/strong>is directing&nbsp;<em><strong>Godzilla vs. Kong<\/strong><\/em>, which serves as a follow-up to both <em><strong>Godzilla: King of the Monsters<\/strong><\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em><strong>Kong: Skull Island<\/strong><\/em>. The film began shooting last November and wrapped principal photography back in April. <strong>Millie Bobby Brown<\/strong>, <strong>Kyle Chandler<\/strong>, and <strong>Zhang Ziyi<\/strong> will all reprise their roles from <em>Godzilla:&nbsp;King of the Monsters<\/em>. Newer cast members include Julian Dennison, Brian Tyree Henry, Jessica Henwick, Demi\u00e1n Bichir, and Rebecca Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The film was initially slated for a March 2020 release but was then delayed to November 20, 2020.
