Godzilla and Kong, living together! Mass hysteria!
I’m being a bit hyperbolic—Godzilla and Kong aren’t living together in the latest Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire trailer, but they are working together against some unknown foe. There’s also a baby Kong, because babies of giant monsters are also cute, apparently.
This trailer gives us a lot more than the first trailer for the film. Ironic quips! Baby Kong! Big Kong getting a tooth the size of a bus knocked out of his mouth! Big Kong with a meched-out hand that can pulverize any skyscraper that’s thrown at him!
Godzilla x Kong, in other words, looks bonkers, and I’m not just talking about the monster fights. I’m also talking about Dan Stevens’ Tanker, who looks like his own special kind of bonkers. It’s not anyone who would non-ironically sport a Hawaiian shirt and look excited to fly into an interdimensional vortex, after all.
In addition to Stevens, Godzilla, and Kong (and Baby Kong), Godzilla x Kong stars Rebecca Hall (Godzilla vs. Kong, The Night House), Brian Tyree Henry (Godzilla vs. Kong, Bullet Train), Dan Stevens (Legion, Beauty and the Beast), Kaylee Hottle (Godzilla vs. Kong), Alex Ferns (The Batman), and Fala Chen (Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings). Adam Wingard, who directed the previous Godzilla film from Legendary, is on board once again as well.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire roars into theaters on March 29, 2024. Check out the new trailer below.
