Both Godzilla and King Kong will return to movie theaters in early 2024 as the Godzilla vs. Kong sequel release date has been set by Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures.
The currently untitled film has a new release date of March 15, 2024. The previous film in the franchise came out on March 31, 2021, so it’s essentially a three-year gap between films. The movie will also be released in Imax theaters.

The upcoming fifth installment to the blockbuster franchise will be delivering a $79.2 million economic boost to Queensland as well as the creation of 505 jobs for local cast and crew and opportunities for 750 extras.
The only actor currently attached to the film is Dan Stevens with director Adam Wingard returning to direct. Further details about the project are still kept under wraps, but initial reports last year suggested that it would potentially be titled Son of Kong. The project will be produced by Eric McLeod, Mary Parent, Alex Garcia, Thomas Tull, and Jon Jashni.

The 2021 film was directed by Wingard from a screenplay written by Eric Pearson and Max Borenstein. It starred Alexander Skarsgård, Millie Bobby Brown, Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, and more. Despite its simultaneous theatrical and HBO Max debut, it still went on to earn a gross of more than $460 million at the worldwide box office.
