Empire:
During the company’s Saturday panel at the San Diego Comic-Con, Legendary made several announcements, including confirming that the Godzilla sequel is in development with several classic monster mash-ups planned. But one that seemed to wow the crowd a little less was the revelation that the company intends to explore the origins of giant ape King Kong. Still, the company is ploughing ahead with the film – called Skull Island – and is looking to secure Joe Cornish’s services as director.
