Adam Wingard, the director of Godzilla x Kong, didn't mean to create a tribute of Barbenheimer or Goku.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is just days out from launch. The massive sequel promises to bring its titans to the big screen like never before as Kong comes loaded with new scars and mech to match. As for Godzilla, the kaiju's new pink form took over the Internet upon its debut, and now Adam Wingard is its Goku x Barbie hype.

"It's one of those things where when we made the movie, Oppenheimer didn't exist and Barbie didn't exist, and the whole concept of Barbenheimer didn't exist. But somehow we created something that was almost like the physical embodiment of Barbenheimer with Godzilla being pink. And that was just one of those things where I think we just kind of synced up culturally. Maybe we're all sipping on the same subconscious Kool-Aid or whatever," Wingard explained.

Of course, the Internet will remember when the first full trailer for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire went live. It was there fans saw Pink Godzilla for the first time, and the pink makeover took over social media. From Barbie comparisons to Super Saiyan Rose tributes, Pink Godzilla became a point of conversation ahead of the MonsterVerse drop. Now, fans are just days away from seeing Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire themselves, and they can decide how the kaiju's pink look fares.
