From the first season, Apple TV's Monarch: Legacy of Monsters has been more than another entry in the ever-expanding Monsterverse. For Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt, now that the second season is out, it has evolved into a story about time, legacy, and what it means to share a single character across generations, something few actors, let alone families, ever experience.
Set within the cinematic universe built around Godzilla and King Kong, the series follows the secret organization Monarch as it tracks the existence and global impact of massive prehistoric Titans. At the center of that mythology is Lee Shaw, a former Army officer whose life spans the origins of Monarch in the 1950s and its modern-day consequences.
