Prepare to be excited, as SpaceGodzilla could be making his highly anticipated return in the upcoming film ‘Godzilla x Kong: Supernova’! The buzz surrounding this exciting addition stems from a recent listing by the Writers Guild of America (WGA), which hints at the presence of this iconic monster in the film. Originally introduced in 1994’s ‘Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla’, this formidable creature is rumored to rejoin Godzilla and Kong in this new chapter of the Monsterverse.
The project, currently under the working title Alpha, is being crafted by talented writers David Callaham, known for his work on ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’, and Michael Lloyd Green, who previously wrote ‘I Am Mother’. The WGA listing specifies that the story is “Based on the characters Godzilla and SpaceGodzilla owned and created by ToHo Co., LTD,” confirming its ties to the beloved franchise.
SpaceGodzilla is depicted as a genetically modified clone of Godzilla from outer space, and while its only appearance in live-action films was in ‘Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla’, this character has gained a significant following through various video games, comics, and other media related to the Godzilla universe.
The direction of ‘Godzilla x Kong: Supernova’ is in the capable hands of Grant Sputore, who also directed ‘I Am Mother’. Production for this eagerly awaited film began in May, with a theatrical release slated for March 26, 2027, under the Warner Bros. banner. This sixth installment in the Monsterverse franchise promises to introduce several new human characters who will join forces with the legendary Titans against a looming catastrophic threat that could spell the end of the world.
Among the returning cast is Dan Stevens, reprising his role as kaiju expert Trapper from ‘Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’. He will be joined by a stellar lineup, including Kaitlyn Dever from ‘The Last of Us’, Jack O’Connell from ‘Sinners’, Sam Neill famous for ‘Jurassic Park’, Matthew Modine from ‘Stranger Things’, Alycia Debnam-Carey of ‘Fear the Walking Dead’, and Delroy Lindo, also from ‘Sinners’.
Before the arrival of ‘Supernova’, fans can look forward to the continuation of the Monsterverse with the second season of ‘Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’, set to premiere on February 27, 2026, exclusively on Apple TV+. This expansion of the Monsterverse universe is sure to captivate audiences, bringing fresh narratives and thrilling adventures to life.
