Kpopstarz is just as bad as kdramastars in that they do not report news, they report random speculation based on what they see on other fan sites to entice viewers who they know want to read about said subject.
The new King Kong movie is a prequel to King Kong's story, not Godzill's.
The only reason Toho got away with using Kong in the first place back in '63 was becuase they threw out his previous lore and basically made him the precursor to Mothra. He was the guardian/god of Faroe Island with a cult of worshippers, lacking only the Shobijin. Other than that, Kong has no place in the franchise and I'm actually quite sick of people jumping on this bandwagon. Seriously, when does a King Kong prequel being made by Legendary automatically mean there is crossover potential. There isn't. King Kong's own story as a 25 foot Gorilla does not line up with Legendary's established Godzilla lore.
It ain't happening.
