Turns out that first Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire trailer was only the tip of the giant iceberg, as things are now looking much wilder and cartoonier (in a good way) than in 2021’s battle royale.
Shortly after moving up on the calendar and taking over March 29, Godzilla x Kong has received a second trailer which takes the Showa-era vibes to the next level. Also: The creatives behind these movies are openly confirming Godzilla is stronger and cooler than Kong. Sorry, ape-heads.
Giant apes, however, are at the center of this story, which sees Kong and his human allies finding out there are remnant civilizations hidden deep into the Hollow Earth. As far as we can tell, Kong’s species isn’t fully extinct, but a bad guy ape (named Skar King by the promotional material) is ruling over them as a tyrant. Enter ‘mini-Kong’ (maybe the red-haired tyrant’s son) seeking help from Kong, a mysterious titan that Skar is keeping around, and human inhabitants of the Hollow Earth shedding some light on all the new lore.
