Yahoo Finance Godzilla v Kong gets action-packed first trailer and release date
The monster epic Godzilla vs Kong has just been given an action-packed new trailer.
Kyle Chandler, Alexander Skarsgard, Julian Dennison and Millie Bobby Brown are set to star in the forthcoming film about the battle between two famous monsters.
The newly released trailer – which debuted on Sunday (24 January) – opens on a scene depicting a city in the midst of a disaster, presumably at the hands of Godzilla. King Kong is proposed as the only solution to the mayhem.
The gigantic gorilla is seen sedated while being transported on a military ship as Skarsgard’s character, geologist Nathan Lind, says: “This is our only chance. We have to take it.”
Godzilla’s attack may not be as straight-forward as initially believed, however, with questions about the lizard’s motives called into question as the trailer progresses.
