It appears like the large unhealthy of the sequel to “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” has been revealed, even when it wasn’t alleged to be. Warner Bros. and Legendary introduced again in Might that manufacturing had begun on “Godzilla x Kong: Supernova,” which would be the sixth entry within the MonsterVerse general following “Godzilla,” “Kong: Cranium Island,” “Godzilla: King of the Monsters,” “Godzilla vs. Kong,” and the aforementioned “The New Empire.” Now, one of many film’s human solid members has considerably quietly — and never so subtly — hinted at a serious monster from the previous getting in on the motion.
Those that want to go into “Supernova” figuring out as little as attainable would possibly want to flip again now since what comes subsequent could possibly be venturing into spoiler territory. With that stated: Matthew Modine, of “Stranger Issues” fame, is taking part in one of many people who might be mixing it up with Godzilla and Kong in director Grant Sputore’s “New Empire” sequel. Taking to Instagram Tales, Modine shared a screenshot in addition to the poster for 1994’s “Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla,” strongly suggesting that SpaceGodzilla goes to be a part of the film.

To make it much more clear, Modine later shared a clip from the movie displaying SpaceGodzilla in motion. For what it is price, the title “Supernova” already closely instructed that SpaceGodzilla was coming to the MonsterVerse. This may occasionally have been one thing that Warner Bros. and/or Legendary wished to maintain below wraps, at the least for a short while longer. Nevertheless, it seems as if Modine did not get the memo.
We must always level out that this isn’t definitive affirmation. Is Modine knowingly messing with followers right here? Has he seen the web hypothesis and easily chosen to lean into {that a} bit? Perhaps. However it does really feel way more probably that he is simply letting the cat out of the bag.
SpaceGodzilla ought to match proper into the MonsterVerse
For individuals who might not be acquainted, SpaceGodzilla is a fairly wild monster within the historical past of the “Godzilla” franchise. As a part of the Heisei period movies, the kaiju was created from a few of Godzilla’s cells, aka G-cells, that had been despatched into outer house. There, they had been swallowed by a black gap solely to be pushed out of a white gap earlier than being, and it is a direct quote from the film, “assimilated [by] crystal organisms throughout its speedy evolution [and] uncovered to large energies from the explosions of stars.”
So yeah, it is all fairly bizarre. That stated, SpaceGodzilla simply has a really distinctive look, which is all the time a very good place to start out for a monster film. Whereas “Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla” might not be one of many extra acclaimed movies within the historical past of the franchise, the monster has solely appeared as soon as, and it has been greater than 30 years since he final graced the silver display screen. It could be time for him to make a comeback. It is also exhausting to think about a greater match for such a weird creature than the MonsterVerse, which has actually leaned into the “let’s get bizarre with it” parts of “Godzilla” because it’s gone alongside.
It is also price declaring that no monsters that had been born from the Heisei period movies have been introduced into the MonsterVerse simply but. We have seen the likes of Mothra, King Ghidorrah, and Rodan make their means into the property up to now, however they hail from the Showa period, which dates again to the unique 1954 monster film traditional that began all of it.
Official plot particulars for “Supernova” are being saved below wraps in the interim. Nevertheless, apart from Modine, we all know the film’s human solid additionally consists of the likes of Kaitlyn Dever (“The Final of Us”), “Sinners” veterans Jack O’Connell and Delroy Lindo, Alycia Debnam-Carey (“Concern the Strolling Lifeless”), and Sam Neill (“Peaky Blinders”), with Dan Stevens reprising his function as Trapper from “The New Empire.”
“Godzilla x Kong: Supernova” is about to hit theaters on March 26, 2027.
