Tom Hiddleston ventures to screens in 2017
Word that Legendary was working on King Kong tale Skull Island arrived to a slightly muted response when a teaser trailer arrived at this year’s Comic-Con, probably because everyone initially thought it was a first glimpse at Jurassic World. Legendary and its Universal partners are trying to make sure people know what it’s all about in future, announcing that the film is now to be titled Kong: Skull Island .
With Tom Hiddleston leading a team of explorers to the titular island and likely to have a run in with its biggest, hairiest occupant, the film is currently in development with John Gatins rewriting a script first drafted by Godzilla’s Max Borenstein.
The Kings Of Summer’s Jordan Vogt-Roberts is the man calling the shots for this one, and Universal has also decided to shift the release date back a little, announcing that the freshly-retitled film will now arrive in US cinemas on March 10, 2017, a few months later than the originally planned November 2016 release. As for its arrival in the UK? Well, since the original release here was set for two days before the US launch, expect the movie some time around March 8, 2017…
