New set photos from the Godzilla TV show focusing on Monarch establish a strong military presence in the upcoming AppleTV+ series.
Set pictures have surfaced for the Godzilla series, establishing its setting. Production on Apple TV+'s yet-to-be-titled Godzilla/MonsterVerse spinoff series has recently begun in Vancouver, Canada. While little is known about the show itself, WandaVision's Matt Shakman will be directing its first two episodes and will center around a family uncovering the Titans' secrets and its link to an organization named Monarch, which has played a role throughout the MonsterVerse movies.
Godzilla and several other Titans are also expected to appear in the series, though it's still unclear what role they will play or if it is set after the sequel to Godzilla vs. Kong, which will release on March 15, 2024. However, it is expected that Monarch will be playing a bigger role in the show than in previous films. The organization's origins were briefly explored in Kong: Skull Island and, more recently, in Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
Our neighbourhood’s looking like an episode of M*A*S*H. As usual we’ll represent the USA - this time Oakland. It is for a yet unnamed TV series by @AppleTVPlus the shoot is tomorrow - and will be a series in the Godzilla universe. Hoping Godzilla will be CGIed in ;-) @yvrshoots pic.twitter.com/yV3d2QgcNG Filming happening today for Apple TV+'s Monsterverse series . This was a practice run through - the lady in the last photo was the person the boom mike was following. @yvrshoots pic.twitter.
It's no surprise that the military will be heavily involved in the events of the Godzilla TV series since they have always been throughout the franchise. Godzilla's main protagonist, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, was an Explosive Ordnance Disposal officer for the U.S. Navy. Kong: Skull Island was set during the Vietnam War, and Monarch's Bill Randa recruits Lieutenant Colonel Preston Packard and his men to explore the titular Skull Island and drop explosives.
