Published in Monsterverse Films 1 min read

While there is no movie specifically titled "Kong Skull Island 2," the Monsterverse has released a film that serves as a direct continuation of Kong's story following Kong: Skull Island. This movie is Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

The Monsterverse's Approach to Kong's Story

Kong: Skull Island played a pivotal role in establishing King Kong within the cinematic universe known as the Monsterverse, which began with Godzilla in 2014. Despite Kong: Skull Island not receiving a direct sequel titled as such, the franchise has consistently developed Kong's narrative.

Instead of a standalone Skull Island sequel, Kong's journey continued through cross-over events and further adventures within the Monsterverse.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire – Kong's Next Chapter

The film Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is considered the next major installment for King Kong after his solo outing. It brings together two of cinema's most iconic titans for a new adventure that expands on the lore established in Kong: Skull Island and subsequent Monsterverse films. This movie serves to advance Kong's story arc significantly, making it the effective Kong sequel that fans had awaited.
