Two titans of monster cinema return to the big screen for Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire – and director Adam Wingard reveals that he took inspiration from two other Hollywood greats for the MonsterVerse franchise's fifth installment.
"There’s just something about the iconography of Kong that really relates to people," Wingard tells SFX magazine in the new issue, which features Star Trek: Discovery season 5 on the cover. "He’s sort of a representation of our baser instincts and vulnerabilities as human beings. Kong really is the last masculine hero in movies. They just don’t make them like that anymore."
