Godzilla & Kong Stare Each Other Down in New GvK Poster
A new poster released for the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong movie shows the two iconic creatures locking eyes. Godzilla vs. Kong's marketing push is in full swing, with the film's release date inching closer. Like all of the Warner films this year, Godzilla vs. Kong is set to release both in theaters and on the streaming platform HBO Max. Subscribers to HBO Max can view Godzilla vs. Kong at no additional cost.
The Godzilla franchise has been running for decades and includes a few different timelines. There have even been crossovers in the franchise with King Kong before, with the 1962 film King Kong vs. Godzilla making Kong the winner. Following the more serious approach from recent MonsterVerse films, Godzilla vs. Kong will take place five years after the events of Godzilla: King of Monsters. From what the trailers have shown so far, the movie's plot will be exactly as the title says: two giant monsters duking it out on screen.
Warner Bros. and Legendary have really played up on the idea of this conflict with this newly released poster. There are no live actors here, just two digitally rendered creatures giving each other hateful glares. The poster also advertises the March 31st release date of the film. Check out the poster below.
While some may be excited for Godzilla vs. Kong to be released, others may be nervous about whether the movie will live up to the hype. Even after the movie Godzilla: King of Monsters received backlash from fans, Godzilla vs. Kong director Adam Wingard apparently did not rework the idea for his film at all, expressing confidence in his ability to create a story distinct from Michael Dougherty's work. Thankfully, it won't be too much longer before fans can find out how different the two films are.
Warner Bros. has been able to further generate hype for their film by building up the rivalry between the giant monsters, making audiences choose between Team Kong and Team Godzilla. It's anybody's guess who might come out on top, but the studios have made it easy for fans to have fun with the iconic characters even before the movie's release. Godzilla vs. Kong is one of the most anticipated movies of 2021, and posters such as this make it clear what the movie will entail: two big monsters, ready to fight, and wreak havoc.
