A new trailer for epic monster mash-upGodzilla Vs Konghas been released and teases even more of the central clash between these two legendary behemoths. While the footage maintains the mystery of why the titular titans are fighting in the first place, the trailer once again makes Kong the protector against a rampaging ‘Zilla.
The newly released footage also offers a further glimpse at some of the human characters, namely Alexander Skarsgård’s Nathan Lind,a geologist who works closely with Kong, Rebecca Hall as Ilene Andrews. We also get a better look at the relationship between Kaylee Hottle’s character, Jia, and Kong. Jia will likely be integral to Kong’s role in the battle and is shown communicating with Kong using sign-language.
Fans are still in the dark as to how thebattle between Godzilla and Kongwill wrap up, with many convinced that clues scattered throughout both trailers hint at a much larger villain that will bring the feuding beasts together for the greater good. Regardless, director Adam Wingard has previously assured fans that there will be a definitive winner. “I do want there to be a winner,” Wingard said of the movie’s titular battle. “The original film was very fun, but you feel a little let down that the movie doesn’t take a definitive stance. People are still debating now who won in that original movie, you know. So, I do want people to walk away from this film feeling like, Okay, there is a winner”.
The official synopsis for Godzilla vs. Kongreads; “Legends collide in Godzilla Vs Kong as these mythic adversaries meet in a spectacular battle for the ages, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance,” the official Godzilla vs. Kong synopsis states. “Kong and his protectors undertake a perilous journey to find his true home, and with them is Jia, a young orphaned girl with whom he has formed a unique and powerful bond. But they unexpectedly find themselves in the path of an enraged Godzilla, cutting a swath of destruction across the globe. The epic clash between the two titans–instigated by unseen forces–is only the beginning of the mystery that lies deep within the core of the Earth.”
