With just a few weeks left until the March 10 release ofKong: Skull Island, Warner Bros. has unleashed an action-packed new clip, which shows King Kong springing into action against one of the viciousSkull Crawlers. If that wasn’t enough, we also have an IMAX featurette, where we hear from starsTom Hiddleston,Brie LarsonandJason Mitchell. The video also featuresSamuel L. Jackson, who compares his character Preston Packard to Ahab fromMoby Dick, with King Kong serving as his “white whale.“Brie Larsonadds how happy she is that they have the “biggest King Kong of them all,” which has been teased by directorJordan Vogt-Robertsin the past.
Warner Bros.debuted this clip earlier today, with Fandango premiering the IMAX featurette, which includes plenty of new footage of some of the other creatures onSkull Island. While Kong is certainly king on this island, there are a number of different creatures he has to fend off, including Skull Crawlers and other nasty reptilian creatures, along with what looks like a huge octopus in one brief scene in this IMAX preview. All of these massive creatures will certainly help this big ape prepare for his impending war withGodzilla, which may be teased in a post-credit scene.
A recent report claimed that there is in fact apost-credit scenethat fans shouldn’t miss, although no details about what is actually shown in that scene have been revealed. There is already speculation that this scene may set upGozilla vs. Kong, which will hit theaters on July 01, 2025, afterGodzilla: King of Monstersarrives on July 11, 2025. SinceKong: Skull Islandis set in the 1970s, it’s possible that this post-credit scene will take place in present day, perhaps setting the stage for both of these monsters to clash. Barring a leak of some sort, we likely won’t know what this post-credit scene contains until the movie hits theaters March 10.
