Disney+ is growing a live-action King Kong sequence that can discover the origin of the legendary creature. The sequence is alleged to be “a serialized drama that may discover Kong’s origins in addition to the mysteries of his dwelling, Cranium Island.”
The challenge shall be primarily based on the unique King Kong, which was written by Merian C. Cooper in addition to the brand new novelizations by artist Joe DeVito. The sequence is being produced together with Cooper’s property.
The present shall be written and produced by Stephany Folsom, who most lately developed the Amazon sequence Paper Ladies. Different producers on the King Kong sequence embrace James Wan, Michael Clear and Rob Hackett.
King Kong made his massive debut within the traditional 1933 movie and Legendary Footage lately has been enjoying with the enormous creature in movies akin to Kong: Cranium Island, which I appreciated, and Godzilla vs. Kong, which I didn’t like. Oh, and the way can we not point out Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake with Adrien Brody, Jack Black, and Naomi Watts.
Netflix is presently growing a Cranium Island anime sequence, and Apple is engaged on one other big monster sequence referred to as Godzilla and the Titans, which stars Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt Russell. Disney+’s King Kong sequence will by no means be linked to that present.
I do not know what to anticipate from this King Kong sequence, however I hope it’s good! I undoubtedly wasn’t anticipating to see a King Kong sequence on Disney+! I’d a lot quite see a live-action Tron sequence.
