The article clarifies that the official title for the next Godzilla and Kong film is "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire," debunking previous rumors that it would be called "Godzilla x Kong: Supernova."
The title reveal was preceded and accompanied by a viral marketing campaign. This included a phone number (1-833-TITAN-NO or 1-833-848-2666) where callers would hear a Monarch Sciences message. This message warned of "abnormal Titan activity," a "Redacted" Titan causing issues, and an "imminent threat," effectively launching an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) that led to the title and teaser trailer.
The film will see Godzilla and Kong unite against a "colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world," which challenges their very existence and that of humanity. It promises to delve deeper into the origins of these Titans, the mysteries of Skull Island, and the mythical battle that forged these beings and tied them to humankind.
The teaser trailer prominently features a new, menacing ape-like Titan (speculated to be the Skar King) and hints at another powerful Titan with ice abilities (potentially named Shimo, fitting the "Redacted" Titan from the ARG).
Adam Wingard returns to direct. Returning cast members include Rebecca Hall (Dr. Ilene Andrews), Brian Tyree Henry (Bernie Hayes), and Kaylee Hottle (Jia), with Dan Stevens being a notable new addition.
"Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" is scheduled for release on April 12, 2024.
