The highly anticipated fifth film in the MonsterVerse franchise, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, is ready to make waves on streaming platforms. Directed by Adam Wingard, the movie has enthralled fans and critics alike with its epic Titan-smashing action and narrative.
When to Catch It on Max
Fans of the MonsterVerse will be delighted to learn that Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire will begin streaming on Max this Fourth of July. Following its successful theatrical run, where it accrued a colossal $567 million at the global box office, the film will now be accessible to a broader audience at home.
A Titan-sized Achievement
Upon wrapping up its theatrical journey, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire not only became available for purchase on digital platforms but also soared as the highest-grossing movie within the franchise. Surpassing previous entries, this installment demonstrates an enduring fascination with giant monsters clashing onscreen.
The Dynamic Duo Behind the Scenes
The next entry in this colossal saga sees a significant change in its creative team. With Adam Wingard stepping down, Grant Sputore has taken the reins as director. Sputore brings his unique vision to the project, famously directing scenes through video app communication to maintain a sense of teamwork and fun on set. David Callaham joins him as the scriptwriter, further enriching the narrative pieced together through remote brainstorms and ideas swaps.
The Franchise’s Future
This latest addition marks only another chapter in what promises to be an expansive MonsterVerse. Wingard previously emphasized focusing more on the monsters than human storylines, a perspective likely continued under Sputore’s direction.
