Godzilla x Kong Director 'Expected' to Return to MonsterVerse

Adam Wingard is riding high thanks to the strong box office receipts that Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire brought in during its theatrical run. Becoming one of the biggest films of 2024, the movie stands tall at the moment with $522 million USD as of the writing of this article.

Earlier this year, we here at ComicBook.com had the chance to talk directly with Wingard about the kaiju crossover. In detailing his love of Godzilla, the director explained how The New Empire reflects Godzilla's previous"Showa" Era,"I think the thing that makes them feel more current is because there's just nothing like it. You look at all the other eras of Godzilla, and Godzilla has always been much more adjacent to being dark since 1984 Godzilla.

When Will Adam Wingard Return To The MonsterVerse?As mentioned previously, Wingard will not immediately make a comeback to a Godzilla and/or Kong project. Next up on the director's radar, according to THR, is the A24 film, Onslaught. While nothing has been confirmed, some online speculate that Onslaught could very well be the sequel to Face/Off that would bring back Nic Cage and John Travolta to their previous roles.

Luckily, fans most likely won't have to wait only for Wingard's return to see the MonsterVerse back on the screen. Apple TV+ confirmed that not only is a second season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters in the works but that MonsterVerse spin-offs are also in the mix.
