New MonsterVerse Movie Release Date Set by Warner Bros.

Warner Bros. Discovery has officially set a new MonsterVerse movie release date, revealing when the next entry in the Godzilla and King Kong franchise will be out.

When is the new MonsterVerse movie release date?

In a recent round of release date shifts, Warner Bros. confirmed that the new MonsterVerse movie release date will be March 26, 2027. The date was previously held for an “untitled WB event film,” but is now slotted in as a MonsterVerse movie in IMAX.

While it’s unclear exactly what the movie will be, a sequel to 2024’s Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is in the works. Last month, Dave Callahan (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings) was tapped to write the project.

Grant Sputore (I Am Mother) will direct the project, replacing Adam Wingard, who directed The New Empire, and who won’t be returning.

The MonsterVerse is a growing collection of franchises and films from Warner Bros., beginning all the way back in 2014 with Godzilla. So far, the shared universe is comprised of five films, including the recently released The New Empire.

Two television shows, Netflix’s animated series Skull Island and Apple TV+’s recent live-action series Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, are also a part of the MonsterVerse.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire will soon be available to stream on Max.
