GODZILLA MonsterVerse Spinoff Series Casts THE FLASH's Kiersey Clemons And More; First Plot Details Revealed

Apple TV+ has revealed the main cast for its upcoming MonsterVerse TV series that will be set in the same world as Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and Godzilla vs. Kong. 

The still-untitled project will take place in the aftermath of "the thunderous battle between Godzilla and the Titans that leveled San Francisco and the shocking new reality that monsters are real," with the focus put on "one family’s journey to uncover its buried secrets and a legacy linking them to the secret organization known as Monarch."

Here's a list of the main cast members, along with details on the characters they'll play, courtesy of TV Line: 

• Anna Sawai as Cate, a former schoolteacher and G-Day survivor who travels to Japan to settle family affairs but instead uncovers a family secret.
• Kiersey Clemons as May, an American ex-pat with a roguish exterior that she uses to protect herself as well as others.
• Joe Tippett as Tim, an office drone who dreams of secret agent adventure.
• Elisa Lasowski as Duvall, an expert operative with unwavering confidence in herself and her skills.
• Ren Watabe as Kentaro, an intelligent, creative and curious young man who has yet to find his own path and embarks on a quest to learn more about his revered yet mysterious father.

Legendary Television is producing this MonsterVerse TV series that was co-created by Chris Black (Star Trek: Enterprise) and Matt Fraction (Hawkeye), with the former serving as showrunner. WandaVision's Matt Shakman will direct the first two episodes and serve as an executive producer.

Despite mixed reviews, the MonsterVerse movies have grossed over $2 billion at the global box office and it was earlier today we learned that the Godzilla vs. Kong sequel will be released in 2024. 

The series certainly sounds intriguing, anyway, and we're definitely excited to see more Kaiju action!
