Godzilla X Kong Sequel chooses Monsterverse Newcomer as Director.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire's sequel has revealed its principal director—a recent Monsterverse novice who will be stepping up for the next film. Adam Wingard, who was earlier revealed not to be returning for the forthcoming sequel, helmed the last two films in the franchise. Still, his work produced a Godzilla x Kong sequel, mostly due to the movie's strong box office results.
The Hollywood Reporter has now verified that the Godzilla x Kong sequel will be directed by Grant Sputore. Most famously, Sputore created the critically appreciated Netflix sci-fi thriller I Am Mother. Although his contribution is unknown, his status as a newbie to the Monsterverse suggests he will probably have lots of ideas on how to forward what has already been produced with the movies.
What Godzilla X Kong Sequel Look Like from Grant Sputore?
With Wingard's most recent Monsterverse franchise release, the film series became a theatrical hit having earned $567.6 million against a $150 million budget at the time of writing. The follow-up will keep emphasizing on the action between Titans, with its central pair at the center of the narrative, based on how well the film fared. But Sputore's participation implies that the franchise will also see a different vision with new ideas included in the forthcoming Sequel.
Godzilla x Kong finishes with its narrative closed, Godzilla returning to the surface while Kong rises to be chief of the ape tribe of Hollow Earth. Perhaps a Toho monster like Gigan or Destoroyah, Sputore's follow-up will present a fresh threat to the planet the couple must band up to destroy. Given the director's expertise with a smartly-crafted, critically-praised thriller, his Monsterverse debut may feature similar themes. This could help make the new threat of the movie more frightening and maybe more serious than the Skar King was.
Godzilla X Kong Cast and Plot
Dave Callaham (Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verze) is writing the Godzilla x Kong Sequel. Furthermore unknown is where Sputore may fit the human narrative and whether the Godzilla x Kong cast would find repeating parts in the future movie. If they do, the narrative might also strongly relate to Monarch's study of Titans, therefore extending the range of the sequel throughout.
But without knowing the next film officiated yet, one cannot know where the next filmmaker would take it. Though his reputation for outstanding Movies speaks for itself, it also shows he will have many of surprises in store.
THE Monsterverse
Following almost destroying each other in Godzilla vs. Kong, the huge Titans are back to confront a fresh deadly threat—but this time they are on the same side. Fifth in Warner Bros.' expanding Monsterverse series, Godzilla x Kong will be directed by Adam Wingard.
The franchise has been successful in bringing classic monsters into the present era; the new director will be likely to follow this direction. The forthcoming Godzilla x Kong sequel looks to be a hit with a new director and a fresh narrative.
