As post-production is slowing on Michael Dougherty's Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Adam Wingard's Godzilla vs. Kong begins production today! The long awaited rematch starts shooting in Hawaii and will move to Australia at a later date.
Read the new synopsis below:
In a time when monsters walk the Earth, humanity’s fight for its future sets Godzilla and Kong on a collision course that will see the two most powerful forces of nature on the planet collide in a spectacular battle for the ages. As Monarch embarks on a perilous mission into uncharted terrain and unearths clues to the Titans’ origins, a human conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures, both good and bad, from the face of the earth forever.
Sounds like the events of Godzilla: King of the Monsters sets the stage for the world we'll witness in Godzilla vs. Kong--Whatever that may be.
