MONARCH: Legacy of Monsters (AppleTV+ Original)

Is that shot from the first episode?

It looks like concept art to me, either for the show itself or recycled from the 2014 film.

Concept art from 2014 I think. I believe I saw it in the "Godzilla: The Art of Destruction" book.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Ah..bummer.

This show just better no skimp on the kaiju..that's the main draw,

I have a feeling this show will be like Singular Point. I mean: Godzilla probably will be mentioned or appear in the beginning about the events of his battle against Mutos or flashback during the 50s and then he will appear in the final episodes. Also it gives us the opportunity to see other titans and expand the roster of monsters from this universe.

Kurt and Wyatt Russell? I hope that pans out, they're as big a draw as the kaiju.

Kiersey Clemons--May, an American ex-pat with a roguish exterior that she uses to protect herself as well as others.
Joe Tippett--Tim, an office drone who dreams of secret agent adventure.
Elisa Lasowski--Duvall, an expert operative with unwavering confidence in herself and her skills.

You had my curiosity... but now you have my attention.

From what I know: Both will play the same character, just Kurt will be the present one and Wyatt the same character in the past

Interested to see how this works out compared to digital de-aging.

If you see them, they look pretty similar, his son looks like his father in the days of trouble in little china movie.

Oh, I've seen him, in Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and I agree with you.

I may have to get a trial or something to watch it. I hope there are a lot of monsters though.

GODZILLA AND THE TITANS---executive producer Matt Shakman commented on if the Apple TV+ tv series will overlap with Legendary Pictures' Godzilla movies, "There is some overlap, though we were not heavily involved in talking about it with [GODZILLA VS. KONG director] Adam Wingard and his team. Legendary is the studio for our show, as well as for the films, and so they sort of sit at the juncture there between the two, and they have a mythology department there which is wonderful.
So they weigh in on how things might overlap, how certain creatures need to stay on one side or the other, and so there is a lot of conversation about it. But in terms of how closely the narratives overlap, it's not as involved to say, an MCU kind of Disney+ film crossover. It's less organized."

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

At least they are thinking of adding more monsters. I hope that means more Toho monsters.

It's really simple: It's either canon to the Monsterverse, or it's not. Which is it? You can't have both.
