In a press release, Apple talked about some of the big names creating the new untitled Godzilla show. “The untitled Monsterverse series will be produced by Legendary Television and executive produced by co-creators Chris Black (Star Trek: Enterprise, Outcast), who will also serve as showrunner, and Matt Fraction (Hawkeye), alongside Safehouse Pictures’ Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell, and Toho Co., Ltd. Hiro Matsuoka and Takemasa Arita will executive produce for Toho,” said Apple.
Apple continued, “Legendary’s Monsterverse is an expansive story universe of multi-layered experiences centering around humanity’s battle to survive in a world that is under siege by a catastrophic new reality—the monsters of our myths and legends are real.”
The show will pick up the story where Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla left off, so if you haven’t had a chance to check out those films, you might want to give them a watch before you watch the new show.
Outside of Godzilla, the show will feature other members of the MonsterVerse, also known as the Titans, though Apple didn’t specify which others would appear. We’d hope to see names like King Kong, Mothra, Rodan, Scylla, and Mechagodzilla, but we’ll have to wait and see which awesome monsters they choose to feature.
Unfortunately, Apple didn’t announce when the show would begin production or when we can expect to see it hit the company’s streaming service.
