Get ready for some Titan-sized excitement!

Dave Callaham, the genius who brought us the epic Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, is diving into the deep end of the Monsterverse. According to a report by the Holywood Reporter, He's all set to write the next Godzilla x Kong installment, and I am here for it!

Now, let’s rewind a bit. Remember the recent sensation, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire? This titan of a movie not only captured our imaginations but also captured a monstrous $555 million worldwide - and it's still counting. That's right, it's on track to outpace the previous hits like 2017’s Kong: Skull Island, which itself was a giant among giants with $568 million. The best part? The New Empire managed this with a production budget of just $135 million, making it potentially the most profitable monster mash in the series.

Enter Dave Callaham - action-writing royalty, known for his knack for crafting scenes that keep us on the edge of our seats. He is the perfect visionary to take the reins. His track record? Nothing short of impressive. From concocting explosive narratives for The Expendables to redefining heroics in Wonder Woman 1984, let's not forget his foray into martial arts mastery with Marvel’s Shang-Chi. And, oh, he sprinkled his magic on the animated Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, snagging an Oscar along the way.

So, what can we expect from Callaham stepping into the Monsterverse? Expect the unexpected. Giant monster showdowns, jaw-dropping action sequences, and perhaps a few heart-stopping twists that will leave us all clamoring for more. With Legendary keen on keeping their monster hits coming, and with Callaham's proven prowess, the next Godzilla x Kong installment is already shaping up to be a legend in the making.

And while we're all buzzing with excitement, there's a bit of a cliffhanger - Adam Wingard, the director of the roaring success The New Empire, is yet to sign on as he's busy brewing up another project. But, with Callaham at the writing desk, we're in safe hands.

The next chapter in the Godzilla x Kong series isn't just coming - it's promising to be a monumental spectacle that will redefine the boundaries of monster cinema.
