Matt Shakman is a director who knows his way around all kinds of genres, from comedies like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia to dramas like The Good Wife. In recent years though, he’s been able to leave his stamp on more fantastical stories, which includes helming two episodes of Game of Thrones, the entirety of WandaVision and, most recently, the first two episodes of Apple TV+’s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. Next up, Shakman is set to direct the upcoming Marvel movie Fantastic Four, and he gave his thoughts to CinemaBlend on how Godzilla and the MonsterVerse franchise have the same appeal as Marvel characters.
