He's back with the big beasts
Max Borenstein clearly has a thing for gigantic beasts raging around. He was one of the main credited writers on Legendary and Warner Bros’ Godzilla and was recently announced as penning the former company’s stab at the King Kong mythology, Skull Island. So it probably shouldn’t be too surprising that he’s set to write the Godzilla sequel taking aim at a 2018 release date.
Given the distance of the release date, not much is known about the film yet, though with the first outing’s Gareth Edwards once more in the director’s chair, plenty of hints have been dropped, including that classic God-botherers Mothra (huge insect) Rodan (giant Pteradon) and Ghidorah (alien dragon) will be the big threats this time around.
Of course, one of the biggest complaints about this year’s first new spin of the giant creature was the distinct lack of much action from the Big G himself. Hopefully that will be rectified in the sequel. Despite his seemingly busy schedule, Borenstein will have time to write both Skull Island – which recently scored Jordan Vogt-Roberts to direct and Tom Hiddleston to star – and Godzilla 2, as Edwards himself is busy working on one of the Star Wars spin-off movies.
