Biography

The MonsterVerse series (モンスターバースシリーズ Monsutābāsu shirīzu), or simply the MonsterVerse (モンスターバース Monsutābāsu), is a series of giant monster films featuring Godzilla and King Kong produced by Legendary Pictures and distributed by Warner Bros. It is the second adaptation of Godzilla by a Hollywood studio, following TriStar Pictures' GODZILLA in 1998. Legendary Pictures acquired the rights to produce an American Godzilla film in 2010 after being approached by producer Brian Rogers, who was attempting to secure funding for Yoshimitsu Banno's new Godzilla project Godzilla 3-D during the current hiatus in Toho's Godzilla series. Legendary opted to produce its own feature-length American Godzilla film rather than Banno's short IMAX film and negotiated with Toho to acquire the rights. The MonsterVerse began in 2014 with Godzilla, and its success led to the swift greenlighting of a sequel co-starring Rodan, Mothra, and King Ghidorah. The next film, Kong: Skull Island, was announced later that year, although Legendary did not reveal that the two took place in the same universe until 2015. Kong: Skull Island was released in 2017, followed by Godzilla: King of the Monsters in 2019 and the crossover film Godzilla vs. Kong in 2021.
