Fans have long waited for the latest addition of the Monsterverse, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, and Adam Wingard, the director, sat down with IGN to discuss the film. The last film showed fans how Godzilla and Kong could join forces to defeat Mechagodzilla, and this latest installment will have the monster duo team up again.
“The skills that it takes to create a giant monster movie are so specific that you have to learn them, and only at the end of production was I like, “Oh wait, now I know. I had all these different ideas of what I would do next time and how I could improve upon it,” Wingard said.

As to how CGI plays a role within the film’s narrative, Wingard said, “So much of the film is entirely animated CG shots; so much of it is just pure imagination. We have some sequences going up to about eight minutes long, where it’s just the monsters doing their thing, and so the movie really allows the monsters to tell their own narrative in a visual, nonverbal way.”
Fans can also anticipate a new monster springing on screen from the teaser trailer of Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire: a “devilish, Kong-type character.” Wingard explained, “We wanted to come up with an antagonist that would both be a match for Kong and Godzilla, and that’s really hard to do. There’s a lot more to this character and how he’s a threat, and that’s going to be something that’s going to be fun to kind of dole out.”
Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire opens on April 12, 2024.
