Rebecca Hall and Brian Tyree Henry, who played leading roles in the original film, as well as its director Adam Wingard will return in the sequel. Dan Stevens, Chen Fala, Alex Furness and Rachel House will join the cast.

The sci-fi action film Godzilla vs Kong grossed $470 million at the worldwide box office, which is a respectable sum for the height of the Covid-19 pandemic when many viewers were still hesitant to visit cinemas. The film was released in a hybrid arrangement - simultaneously in cinemas and on streaming service HBO Max - which caused controversy at the time.
