It’s been three years since Apple TV released an episode of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, but the show has surged back into the streaming top 10 following the latest exciting Season 2 news. Widely regarded as Apple TV’s most underrated sci-fi show, Monarch is set in the MonsterVerse, the same universe as Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island, and other Titan-centric movies. The show stars Wyatt Russell and Kurt Russell, a real-life father-and-son duo who portray younger and older versions of the same character. At the time of writing, Monarch has charged back into the Apple TV top 10, currently sitting at #9 on the TV charts.
Part of what has propelled Monarch back into the Apple TV top 10 is the thrilling news that surfaced online last week. Apple released the first official teaser for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2, confirming that the show will return on February 27, with new episodes airing through May. Prey veteran Amber Midthunder has also joined the cast for Season 2, which will introduce a new Titan into the mix. When Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 concludes, there will be less than a year until the next MonsterVerse film, Godzilla x Kong: Supernova, hits theaters.
Few details are known about Godzilla x Kong: Supernova at this time, other than it will showcase the two titular Titans teaming up once again to face an even greater threat. Dan Stevens will reprise his role as Trapper in the film, and other notable stars like Delroy Lindo, Sam Neill, and Jack O’Connell have also joined the cast. Additionally, The Last of Us veteran Kaitlyn Dever and Stranger Things star Matthew Modine will feature in the film.
Who Is Directing the Next ‘Godzilla X Kong’ Movie?
Grant Sputore is directing Godzilla x Kong: Supernova, with a script by Dave Callaham and Michael Lloyd Green. Previously, Adam Wingard directed both Godzilla vs. Kong and <em>Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire</em>, but he has stepped down and passed directorial duties to Sputore. Wingard cited a desire to pursue other projects after spending nearly a decade working on Godzilla films. The Godzilla movies have become significant box office successes, and while another film after Supernova has not yet been announced, it would not be surprising to see Warner Bros. and Legendary greenlight another installment.
