The fans were hyped as the simple poster of the film captured everyone’s attention, as the third poster featured a primal face and it looked quite different from the Kong we know, also the handprint was in red with piercing blue eyes and a thinner face in the middle. However, fans who shared their opinions on the social media of the previous two works failed to bewitch their fans. As a result, they are having second thoughts about the upcoming film.

Another fan hopes that the film lives up to its expectations because they would like to watch the film.

What Can Fans Expect From Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire?

As Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’s teaser trailer dropped it opened numerous possibilities. Fans can expect a plethora of things. It featured a Kaiju from Kong’s species, who looked like would be the evil new Titan, as it was sitting on a throne amidst a pile of skeletons, and its menacing looks show that it’ll be the main villain of the film. Moreover, the introduction of Kong’s Kind adds a new storyline, where the film might explore Hollow Earth in greater detail, showcasing more details and surprises from the Titan world.

Another exciting thing that the fans of the franchise can expect from the film is that the film would talk about the origin of the Titan War, and why Kong and Godzilla’s species have been fighting for ages. Exploring the origin of the ancient war would be a good idea and the evil Kong might be the one who started the war. Hence, fans must not miss the film in any case.
