Monster Zero x SciFi Japan - Archive Only

Now people are saying that Danai Gurira (Black Panther, Walking Dead) is cast or at least close to being cast in Godzilla vs. Kong.

If true, then Sarah Finn is added again casting MCU actors in the Monsterverse (and vice-versa). Since Robert Downey Jr. was once reported to play "Perry Mason" for the big screen, Sarah should cast Downey to play a certain reporter named Mr. Martin for this feature!

I'm finding news about this movie very easy to ignore...which is kind of a good thing...

So focused on King of the Monsters, that then it'll seem like a relatively short wait (with lots of stuff to catch up on) for this one.

I wonder if they still have October as a target start date to commence shooting? By now, we would have heard major casting announcements, than the few already mentioned. Perhaps, that is it. Perhaps everything will take place in more isolated areas, such as an island, thus the need for fewer actors. I really don't see that happening, however. My gut says that shooting will not start until the very end of the year or the beginning of 2019.

I could see them getting started filming for the actorless scenes with spfx heavy sequences as well as needed b-roll such as crowds running and reacting.

Haven't we heard that some of the cast of KOTM is returning? Maybe they're just the main characters...?

^And then they can start up the Godzilla vs. Kong hype riiiiight after King of the Monsters' release!

So, Godzilla vs. Kong starts filming... Today!

Feels a bit bizarre to have the follow up start filming 8 months before the next movie comes out. This must be what the hardcore Marvel fans feel all the time.

Well, it looks like they are going to start in Queensland, Australia, which no doubt, will be part of the Skull Island scenes



They will probably return to Vietnam to film more Skull Island scenes (unless of course, they decide it is cheaper to film all of those scenes in Hawaii).

I hope they do some filming in Viet Nam. The beautiful location footage was a key ingredient in Kong: Skull Island.

Yeah KK 76 was filmed in Hawaii also.

Brian Tyree Henry joins "Godzilla vs. Kong".



I am not familiar with this actor, but he is probably the first of several casting announcements to come, now that this production underway.

^ considering that they're both Warner Brothers projects I wonder if Godzilla's release date will move? Of course, these days a two-week space cushion is just about all you can hope for.
