Since 2021, Godzilla and Kong have been sharing the highlight within the MonsterVerse, first coming to blows within the appropriately-named Godzilla vs. Kong, after which having a full team-up in Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. Now their third film collectively on this franchise is coming collectively, and in the present day brings phrase that Stranger Issues’ Matthew Modine might be alongside for the experience. Moreover, I have already got a principle about how his character might be utilized within the film.
Modine, who performed Dr. Martin Brenner on Stranger Issues, is the second main actor from the favored Netflix subscription-exclusive collection to hitch the MonsterVerse. Beforehand, Millie Bobby Brown, who stars as Eleven on Stranger Issues, performed Madison Russell in Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong. Modine’s castmates the Godzilla x Kong sequel embrace Dan Stevens reprising Trapper, in addition to Kaitlyn Dever (the primary actor to be solid), Jack O’Connell and Delroy Linda.
Per THR, Matthew Modine will play a common within the subsequent MonsterVerse film. A high-ranking authority determine being an vital character within the sequel is hardly surprising contemplating how usually we’ve seen numerous nations’ militaries taking pictures on the Titans and dealing with Monarch, the group that research these large monsters. And but, even with so little info to work off of, I have already got a suspicion that Modine’s character might be a villain within the Godzilla x Kong sequel.
Admittedly, most of that is influenced by his time as Brenner on Stranger Issues, who was the primary human antagonist in Season 1 and returned in Season 4 as a barely extra sympathetic character. It’s simple for me to ascertain Modine’s common character as somebody who finally ends up clashing with the human protagonists within the midst of Godzilla and Kong preventing this subsequent Titan risk. The primary situation that involves thoughts is that the character hates the Titans and both desires to wipe them off the face of the Earth or has a plan to control them for his personal achieve.
Principally, I’m hoping Matthew Modine’s characters provides off the identical sort of vibes that Samuel L. Jackson’s Preston Packard and Demián Bichir’s Walter Simmons did in Kong: Cranium Island and Godzilla vs. Kong, respectively. Hopefully as soon as plot info begins trickling in for the sequel, I’ll have a greater thought on if my principle is on the cash or not. Both means, welcome to the MonsterVerse, Mr. Modine! Be sure to watch the place you step.
In the event you’re seeking to make amends for the MonsterVerse motion pictures forward of the Godzilla x Kong sequel, which is being directed by Grant Sputore, they’ll all be accessed with a Max subscription. Nonetheless, don’t overlook there’s additionally the TV collection Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, for which you’ll want an Apple TV+ subscription to stream.
