Godzilla vs.
Kong. It was March 2019, two months before
Godzilla: King of the Monsters‘ release. And here we were, a group of film journalists about to visit the set of its sequel. Outside of a few pretty obvious observations—namely, that Godzilla would survive
King of the Monsters—we knew little about the first film’s plot. All we knew was that it would somehow pave the way for an epic fight between two of cinema’s most legendary monsters: Godzilla and King Kong.
We learned quite a bit on set that day. And even more when we spoke with director Adam Wingard on Zoom almost two years later. But what stands out best in my memory is the root of the story. The whole reason for pitting two giant creatures against one another in the first place. The Legendary MonsterVerse is an epic world, yes, but also an intimate one.
