Godzilla vs Kong: How different will King Kong look in the fourth MonsterVerse movie & why

The trailer of Godzilla vs Kong, the fourth movie that will take the story of Legendary's Monsterverse ahead, will be released within 24 hours from the time of this writing. The Adam Wingard film spent a significant amount of time in the production phase, owing to the scale of production. The crew of the film, whose production commencement date predates the release of Godzilla: King Of The Monsters by several months, additionally had to halt the filming of the same when the various governments of the world announced lockdowns due to the still ongoing COVID crisis. Just a handful of days ago, Legendary gave the prospective viewers their first look at the simian Titan through the very first official poster of the same. One can see that in the picture below, King Kong's look in Godzilla vs Kong is visibly different from the way he looked in Kong: Skull Island. This article will dwell into why will Kong look different in Godzilla vs Kong and how is it important to Godzilla vs Kong plot.

This means that the Kong that the viewers will get to see in the fourth MonsterVerse outing is a more mature version of the ape who was just concerned about saving his home. The fact that the film is set in a more recent past also explains Kong's significant growth spurt, which has caused him to surpass the heights of the tallest buildings in the city that he can be seen occupying in the official first look poster of the film. One could also say that King Kong's significant increase in height is going to help him in the film since a major portion of Godzilla vs Kong plot is about Kong's brawl with Godzilla, who has historically been portrayed as a monster that is three times the size of the Skull Island dweller. So, given that nearly half a century has passed since humans have meddled with the environment of Kong's home island, one can expect Godzilla vs Kong's ape god to be a taller, stronger, and battle-weary version of the Kong who served as the main protagonist of the 2017 film.

The theorized disturbance supposedly upset Kong on various levels, and Kong's look in Godzilla vs Kong will supposedly reflect that, which is why the viewers will meet a King Kong that will probably have battle scars all over him. The rumoured disturbance will also supposedly serve as a motive behind Kong wanting to have a face-off with the gigantic atomic underwater dweller that is equipped with atomic rays. However, the makers of the film are yet to confirm, deny or comment on any of the theories.

The film will release on the 31st of March in theatres as well as on HBO Max, the streaming service on which the viewers will be able to see the two titans fight for a total of 31 days.
