The Skull Island movie which will star Avengers villain Tom Hiddleston has changed its name to Kong: Skull Island. Though initially this does seem patronising to its audience, and while we doubt this is the real reason for the movies name change - another Skull Island does exist, as featured in the video game classic Curse of Monkey Island. Though Monkey Island's Skull Island is a secret pirate hideout shaped like a duck, or a rabbit; depending on which way you tilt your head. Regardless, to accompany the movies small name change, Legendary have also moved back the movies release date, probably to avoid competing with Marvel Studios newly announced Doctor Strange, now Kong: Skull Island will release on March 10th 2017, as confirmed below...
KONG: SKULL ISLAND, March 10, 2017. UNTITLED GREAT WALL PROJECT, November 23, 2016.
