A Mysterious Sixth Monsterverse Movie in the Works!

Ten years strong, Legendary’s Monsterverse is now an expansive story universe of cross-platform experiences, and in the wake of the massive box office success of this year’s Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, a sixth installment in the saga has been officially confirmed!

The Hollywood Reporter tells us this afternoon that Dave Callaham (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings) is writing the upcoming sixth movie in the Monsterverse franchise.

THR notes in their exclusive report, “Callaham knows a thing or two about Godzilla. The scribe wrote the early drafts and received story by credit for 2014’s Godzilla, the movie that kicked off Legendary’s monster mania.” No word yet on who will be directing the upcoming sixth movie.

We also have no idea if it’ll be a follow-up to Adam Wingard’s movies Godzilla vs. Kong and Godzilla x Kong, or if it will take the film franchise down a new path. Stay tuned.

Beginning with the Godzilla film in 2014 and continuing through 2017’s Kong: Skull Island, 2019’s Godzilla: King of the Monsters, 2021’s Godzilla vs. Kong, and most recently the record-breaking Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, the Monsterverse has accumulated over $2B at the global box office and expanded into the highly successful event series, Legendary’s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters for Apple TV+. We recently learned that “Monarch” is getting a second season, with more Monsterverse spinoff shows being planned at Apple TV+.

“Apple TV+ has struck a new multi-series deal with Legendary Entertainment, which includes multiple spinoff series based on the franchise,” the recent press release had stated.

You’ll be able to own Godzilla x Kong on Digital beginning Tuesday, May 14.
