“Godzilla vs. Kong” Is A ‘Monster Brawl’
Filmmaker Adam Wingard, out doing promotional rounds for the upcoming “Death Note” film on Netflix, has spoken a bit about his in the works next project – the big-budget “Godzilla vs. Kong” film at Warner Bros. Pictures.
He reveals to Screen Crush that his biggest goal with the film is to get people being moved and sympathetic towards the monster characters in between all the kaiju-on-kaiju action:
“It’s a massive monster brawl movie. There’s lots of monsters going crazy on each other, but at the end of the day I want there to be an emotional drive to it. I want you to be emotionally invested in them. I think that’s what’s going to make it cool…
I really want you to take those characters seriously. I want you to be emotionally invested, not just in the human characters, but actually in the monsters. If I had my way, I want people to really be teary-eyed at the end of the movie, and be that invested in to what’s going on.”
“Godzilla vs. Kong” is currently targeting a 2020 release and will follow after the “Godzilla” sequel which filmmaker Michael Dougherty is currently directing.

Wingard Teases “Godzilla vs. Kong” Continuity
Filmmaker Adam Wingard has confirmed that his upcoming “Godzilla vs. Kong” will be tightly linked with Michael Dougherty’s currently filming “Godzilla” sequel.
Wingard, speaking with SlashFilm about his “Death Note” adaptation which arrives shortly on Netflix, confirms Universal’s giant monster showdown film will be set in the present day and discusses the crossover potential with the previous films like 2014’s “Godzilla” and this year’s “Kong Skull Island”:
“Ours is more in continuity with the sequel to Godzilla right now. They’re doing Godzilla 2 with Mike Dougherty directing, so our film is in present day.
We have a couple characters from Godzilla 2 in ours, but it’ll be interesting to see how Kong has fared over the years. You see him in that film and he’s just constantly under attack.
Things are going wrong and there’s probably been lots of human intervention since then. It’ll be interesting to see a more rugged, a bit more aged Kong in this film.”
The “Godzilla vs. Kong” script comes from a writer’s room under the guidance of “Pirates of the Caribbean” co-writer Terry Rossio. It is currently targeting a May 22nd 2020 release.

Sounds good but will it beat the original 1962 Toho masterpiece?

Only in effects. The 1962 film is a damned classic. Still, I will be right there buying a ticket.

She couldn't seem to keep away from sci-fi.
I don't think a movie called DEL TARRANT, with a soundtrack by Queen, would have worked though.
