The newest synopsis for now set for release in March, when it will roll out both in theaters and on HBO Max.
Godzilla vs. Kong will feature the returns of various King of the Monsters characters, such as Millie Bobby Brown's Madison Russell and Kyle Chandler's Mark Russell. Newcomers to the franchise include Rebecca Hall, Alexander Skarsgård, Julian Dennison, Eiza González, and Brian Tyree Henry. Glimpses at Godzilla vs. Kong have been slow to arrive, as Warner Bros. kept moving the film back. The first Godzilla vs. Kong trailer was only released Sunday after various tiny teasers. Now that it's just two months away, though, the curtain is finally being peeled back.
Along with the trailer, Warner Bros. has released the full synopsis for Godzilla vs. Kong. The plot description teases Kong's search for his real home, as well as the brewing battle between him and Godzilla. To say this will be a massively destructive battle with far-reaching implications feels like an understatement. Read on to see what's in store for Kong and Godzilla.
Legends collide in "Godzilla vs. Kong" as these mythic adversaries meet in a spectacular battle for the ages, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Kong and his protectors undertake a perilous journey to find his true home, and with them is Jia, a young orphaned girl with whom he has formed a unique and powerful bond. But they unexpectedly find themselves in the path of an enraged Godzilla, cutting a swath of destruction across the globe. The epic clash between the two titans -- instigated by unseen forces -- is only the beginning of the mystery that lies deep within the core of the Earth.
One of the more intriguing bits in the Godzilla vs. Kong synopsis is Kong searching for his home. The ape's Kong: Skull Island, seemingly established the titular Skull Island as his home; he lived there for decades as its protector. However, it sounds like Kong has a different origin, and it's one that will be unveiled in Godzilla vs. Kong. This could have deeper implications for the MonsterVerse, and it'll be interesting to see how this impacts future installments.
Beyond that, the trailer for Godzilla vs. Kong established the iconic kaiju as the antagonist in this battle. The synopsis, which describes Godzilla as "enraged" s this, but it also hints that he's not entirely responsible for his actions. The mention of "unseen forces" who instigate this epic cinematic battle hints at a more secretive plot that will surely be revealed when Godzilla vs. Kong finally makes its long-awaited debut. Until then, fans can theorize about what's in store for the MonsterVerse.
