Warner Bros. is moving forward with the MonsterVerse, as Dan Stevens has been cast as the new human lead in Godzilla vs. Kong 2. Warner Bros. launched a new cinematic universe in 2014 with a Godzilla solo film and used the next few years to further establish the giant lizard and his monkey counterpart, Kong, before teaming them up in Godzilla vs. Kong in 2021. The long-delayed movie proved to be a solid success for Warner Bros., as it earned nearly $500 million worldwide during the pandemic. It is for this reason that the MonsterVerse is going to continue.
