Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire has ended up exceeding expectations at the box office since it hit theaters, and Legendary Entertainment is thinking about the future of the franchise.
The film currently has a disappointing 54% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, but an audience score of 92%. Audiences apparently love this film and so far the film has grossed nearly $363 million worldwide.
Speaking about these box office numbers, Mary Parent, Legendary’s president of worldwide production, told THR, “This is definitely an exciting result.”
He added: “We’re in a good position to continue the journey, but let’s see how Godzilla x Kong unfolds. These are early days, but we’re definitely feeling good.”
Jeff Goldstein, president of domestic production at Warner Bros., added: “It’s unusual for a film that’s the fourth or fifth sequel to do this kind of business. In the past, Godzilla appealed to a more general audience. This was a spectacular film, a spectacular marketing campaign.” and a spectacular appointment.”
Parent adds, “Everyone made this movie out of love. And we spent less on this movie than on any other movie.” He also said, “these characters have permeated the culture.”
Director Adam Wingard he previously said he wanted to direct another film that would close out a MonsterVerse trilogy.
He recently shared that he has some ideas about where the MonsterVerse might go: “The idea that if you’ve done two movies, maybe, you should just go ahead and do a third because, like you said, there’s a trilogy.” in there.
He continued: “I definitely think there’s more story behind this, and I think I have more story to tell. But it just depends on how [Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire] ago and how things are going.
He continued, “I know that sounds like a bullshit diplomatic response. But the truth is, if I’m being completely honest with you, I have more stories to tell with these monsters and I know where I’d take it. I’d be very excited to be able to come back for a more if things worked!”
It looks like Wingard will get a chance to make that third film. Have you all seen The New Empire? So, are you excited about a possible third film?
