Apple TV+ recently announced that it is creating a new original live-action series from Legendary’s Monsterverse franchise.
The series explores one family’s journey to uncover its buried secrets and a legacy linking them to the secret organisation known as Monarch.
The untitled Monsterverse series will be produced by Legendary Television and executive produced by co-creators Chris Black (Star Trek: Enterprise, Desperate Housewives), who will also serve as showrunner, and Matt Fraction (Hawkeye), alongside Safehouse Pictures’ Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell and Toho Co. Ltd. Hiro Matsuoka and Takemasa Arita will executive produce for Toho.
Toho is the owner of the Godzilla character and has licensed the rights to Legendary for this series.
Legendary’s Monsterverse is an expansive story universe centering around humanity’s battle to survive in a world that is under siege by a catastrophic new reality—the monsters of our myths and legends are real.
Beginning in 2014 with Godzilla and continuing with 2017’s Kong: Skull Island, 2019’s Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and 2021’s Godzilla vs. Kong, the Monsterverse is ever expanding with the latest iteration being a new anime series, “Skull Island.”
The untitled Monsterverse series will premiere globally on Apple TV+ .
Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app in over 100 countries and regions, on over 1 billion screens, including iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac, popular smart TVs from Samsung, LG, Sony, VIZIO, TCL and others, Roku and Amazon Fire TV devices, Chromecast with Google TV, PlayStation and Xbox gaming consoles, and at tv.apple.com.
