Godzilla Vs. Kong: 10 Places The MonsterVerse Could Go Next

6. Kong

Godzilla vs Kong
Warner Bros.

Following the defeat of Mechagodzilla, Godzilla and Kong appear to agree to some kind of truce. It's the giant lizard, however, who has dominion over the surface world, having earlier bested Kong quite definitively, so Kong returns to rule the Hollow Earth that was once populated by his ancestors.

As we have already seen, the Hollow Earth already has a number of resident animals, who much like on Skull Island differ in size, looks, and aggressiveness. Monarch, too, now have an outpost there, ready to try and learn more about this strange underground world.

We have already had Kong: Skull Island, so Kong: Hollow Earth seems like the next natural progression for the world's most famous great ape. There is enough detail and history unexplored to merit a new chapter in Kong's story, one that can either see him cement his dominion underground or attempt to make a return to the surface.

It is a stretch to believe that he will not rise to the occasion again should the world face some great nameless threat, especially if that threat originates from the Hollow Earth. This is surely not the last we will see of Kong.
