#First Footage from Godzilla Vs. Kong, Mortal Kombat, Space Jam 2 and More Revealed

The first footage from Godzilla Vs Kong has finally been unveiled alongside our first reall look at Mortal Kombat, Space Jam 2 and The Sopranos prequel. This footage arrives just one day after it was officially announced that Warner Bros. will release the long-awaited Godzilla Vs. Kong two months earlier than initially expected. Godzilla vs. Kong will now arrive in theaters and HBO Max on March 26th. The movie was going to open in May 2021, but Legendary and Warner Bros. decided to give monster fans a big treat instead. Before the May release date, the movie, which wrapped production in April 2019, was supposed to open in November 2020. You can see the first footage, along with several other sneak peeks from upcoming HBO Max releases in the twitter trailer.

This year, the biggest Warner Bros. premieres are coming to theaters and streaming on HBO Max the exact same day. What movie are you most excited for? ???? https://t.co/6Ny7n8JUGkpic.twitter.com/UEMmDlMIy6

The HBO Max Twitter account posted a new ad for their upcoming 2021 content, which begins with an epic, though brief, look Godzilla vs. Kong. We see Godzilla rise from the ocean before engaging in an intense battle with Kong. It’s pretty much a blink-and-you-miss-it moment, but it is certainly exciting. From there, the ad shows footage from The Suicide Squad, Tom & Jerry, Dune, Mortal Kombat, Space Jam 2, and more.

Godzilla vs. Kong takes place in a new world where man and monster now coexist. Monarch is leading the way to a prosperous future alongside the Titans, which in turn, is keeping humanity in check. However, rival factions that want to manipulate the Titans for war begin to rise under the guise of a nefarious conspiracy, threatening to wipe out all life on the planet. Meanwhile, on Skull Island, strange seismic activity draws the attention of Godzilla and Kong alike. Monster fans have been waiting a long time to see any footage from the movie, so hopefully this snippet means that the official trailer will premiere shortly.

Adam Wingard has been pretty tight-lipped when it comes to discussing Godzilla vs. Kong, but he has revealed a few tidbits, none of which spoil anything. When asked about plot specifics, the director simply said, “lots of Monsters going crazy at each other,” which is to be expected and even teased in the first footage. The director went on to say that the movie also has an emotional drive behind it. He teases that there are some tear-jerking moments by adding that “the fourth entry in the Monsterverse wants your tears.”

WarnerMedia made the surprise announcement late last year that they were going to take all of their 2021 movies and premiere them on HBO Max simultaneously. The announcement was a surprise for everybody, including Legendary, who made Godzilla vs. Kong and Dune, who swiftly threatened legal action over the decision. Both movies were made to be seen on the big screen, but the public health crisis has the majority of movie theaters closed. It is unclear what the studios will do in regard to Denis Villeneuve’s Dune, but Adam Wingard’s Godzilla vs. Kong will be released utilizing the hybrid release strategy. You can check out the first footage from the movie above, thanks to the official HBO Max Twitter account.
