Development[edit]

In October 2017, Steven S. DeKnight (director and co-writer of Pacific Rim: Uprising) noted that there have been discussion about a cross-over between the MonsterVerse and Pacific Rim franchise, however, he iterated it was all theoretical possibilities.[1] In March 2019, when asked about the future of the MonsterVerse, producer Alex Garcia stated:

"It's one brick at a time, each piece has to be as good as it can be, so right now it's all focused on this [Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong]. But could there be? Yeah, that's the hope if the movies turn out really well."[2]

On January 26, 2021, two days after the release of the Godzilla vs. Kong official trailer, director Guillermo del Toro via Twitter expressed his desire for a crossover between Pacific Rim and Godzilla to develop by saying:

"I personally love seeing the Neon, Sea battles, building demolition, etc because secretly -maybe- the PAC RIM Universe co-exists in the LEGENDARY Kaijuverse and, perhaps, one day they can rumble!"[3]

In February 2021, Wingard commented on the future of the MonsterVerse, "I know where we could go potentially with future films". However, he noted that the MonsterVerse was created "to a certain degree" to lead towards Godzilla vs. Kong.[4] He added that the MonsterVerse is at a "crossroads", stating, "It’s really at the point where audiences have to kind of step forward and vote for more of these things. If this movie is a success obviously they will continue forward."[5]

In April 2021, Legendary's CEO Josh Grode commented on potential sequels, "we have a number of ideas for more movies."[6] That same month, the hashtag #ContinueTheMonsterverse began trending on Twitter, which garnered support from Jordan Vogt-Roberts (director of Kong: Skull Island) and was acknowledged by Legendary.[7][8] On April 27, 2021, The Hollywood Reporter stated that Legendary was "quietly taking steps to stretch the series into one or more installments," while negotiating with Wingard to potentially return to direct. Various ideas are being considered, with Son of Kong being one potential title.[9][10]
