Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Image Warns That There's More To Uncover

A new teaser image for Apple TV+ & Legendary Television's Godzilla-starring Monarch: Legacy of Monsters warns that there's more to uncover...


Last month, Apple TV+ & Legendary Television dropped a pretty impressive preview of one of the next chapters in Legendary's "Monsterverse," offering us first-look images, an overview, and an official title for their Godzilla-starring live-action series – Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. As we learned from the overview, a large focus of the upcoming streaming series will be on learning more about the secretive organization known as Monarch. What is its true connection to Godzilla and the Titans? How long has it been working in the shadows? And is it here for the benefit of mankind – or could it be an even deadlier "monster"? It appears the investigation into Monarch is already underway, with Apple TV+ dropping a teaser image of a sign directing citizens to a Godzilla "Designated Shelter" lying in some rubble – with the line, "There's more to uncover," included in the social media.

Following the thunderous battle between Godzilla and the Titans that leveled San Francisco and the shocking revelation that monsters are real, "Monarch: Legacy of Monsters" tracks two siblings following in their father's footsteps to uncover their family's connection to the secretive organization known as Monarch. Clues lead them into the world of monsters and ultimately down the rabbit hole to Army officer Lee Shaw (played by Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell), taking place in the 1950s and half a century later where Monarch is threatened by what Shaw knows. The dramatic saga – spanning three generations – reveals buried secrets and the ways that epic, earth-shattering events can reverberate through our lives.

Hailing from Legendary Television, the series is executive produced by Black, Fraction, and Shakman alongside Joby Harold (Obi-Wan Kenobi, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) and Tory Tunnell (Spinning Out, Underground) from Safehouse Pictures, Matt Shakman (Wandavision), Andy Goddard (Carnival Row, Downton Abbey), Brad Van Arragon (Yellowjackets, Carnival Row), and Andrew Colville (Severance, Star Trek: Discovery). Hiro Matsuoka and Takemasa Arita executive produce on behalf of Toho Co., Ltd., the owner of the Godzilla character. Toho licensed the rights to Legendary for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters as a natural byproduct of their long-term relationship with the film franchise.
