Watch as two legendary monsters are unleashed on London, ahead of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire hitting cinemas Friday!
Those braving London’s morning commute today were given a terrific start to their week as Godzilla and Kong united around the River Thames and South Bank.
Godzilla’s bristling pink spikes, brimming with atomic power, were seen lurking eerily around Tower Bridge and South Bank alongside Kong, who appeared to be bursting from Hollow Earth and crushing an iconic London red phone box beneath the OXO Tower, which now bears the letters ‘GxK’.
The spectacular takeover spanning air, land and sea is still at large until late this evening and coincides with the upcoming release of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, in cinemas across the UK and Ireland from this Friday 29th March.
The epic battle continues! Legendary Pictures’ cinematic Monsterverse follows up the explosive showdown of “Godzilla vs. Kong” with an all-new adventure that pits the almighty Kong and the fearsome Godzilla against a colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world, challenging their very existence—and our own. “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” delves further into the histories of these Titans and their origins, as well as the mysteries of Skull Island and beyond, while uncovering the mythic battle that helped forge these extraordinary beings and tied them to humankind forever.
Once again at the helm is director Adam Wingard. The film stars Rebecca Hall (“Godzilla vs. Kong,” “The Night House”), Brian Tyree Henry (“Godzilla vs. Kong,” “Bullet Train”), Dan Stevens (“Gaslit,” “Legion,” “Beauty and the Beast”), Kaylee Hottle (“Godzilla vs. Kong”), Alex Ferns (“The Batman,” “Wrath of Man,” “Chernobyl”) and Fala Chen (“Irma Vep,” “Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings”).
