The Godzilla 2014 sequel release date has been confirmed! Who would face the "King of the Monsters" in the sequel?
The Godzilla 2014 sequel release date and part 3 has been confirmed, effectively making the Godzilla films into a trilogy. Who will Godzilla fight next?
According to the reports, Legendary Pictures has set the Godzilla 2014 sequel release date on May 2016.
The Godzilla 2014 sequel could very well be a set up to the biggest Kaiju battle in history if the monsters Godzilla is fighting in Godzilla 2 aren't enough as Godzilla could fight King Kong once "Skull Island" is over.
A lot was revealed at the San Diego Comic Con 2014 and new details about the Godzilla 2014 sequel, creatively titled "Godzilla 2" have been revealed as well as the announcement of the King Kong prequel "Skull Island"
NME.com has reported all the new details from the Godzilla 2014 sequel aka Godzilla 2:
Godz were shown a teaser reel titled 'Classified Monarch Footage' which appeared as if put together in the '60s with a voiceover from then President John F Kennedy talking about the threats and dangers to humanity.
After informing us that there was one more secret, a message appears on screen: "There were others."
Across the shadow of pterodactyl appears the legend: "CODENAME: RODAN". Following this, an extreme close-up of a giant moth-like creature: "CODENAME MOTHRA". Finally a silhouette with flashed edit cuts around the figure of a dragon: "CODENAME: GHIDORAH".
The footage closes with the warning, "THREAT ASSESSMENT: CONFLICT INEVITABLE" before ending with, "LET THEM FIGHT".
But that doesn't stop there as Legendary pictures may have teased MechaGodzilla in their tweets.

As Legendary Entertainment company was closing out its panel at Comic-Con on July 26, the company's CEO Thomas Tull teased the crowd by saying one very exciting line!
"We have been tinkering around with one thing," Thomas said and at that point, the movie Skull Island was revealed and footage from the film began to play.
Mashable has released a description of the teaser:
"The teaser started with the camera panning over a roiling sea, leading to an island of dense jungle and obscured beasts. The shot tracked into a skull-shaped rock outcropping where something stirred - something big - and then rose, with the dark profile of a giant ape. He roared, he beat his chest, and the words 'Legendary's Skull Island' appeared," they report.
"Previous works have touched on the island, but staying and exploring this mysterious and dangerous place offers Legendary the opportunity to take audiences deeper inside this rich world with a style and scope that parallels other Legendary productions. The film will be released on November 4, 2016,"
With Legendary Pictures helming the Godzilla 2 and Skull Island movies, it seems that it is a possibility that King Kong vs Godzilla would happen and if Thomas Tull's comments after Comic Con 2014 was any indication, it may happen.
The Movie News Hound has reported that Thomas Tull was interviewed after Comic Con and when asked about Godzilla vs King Kong, he only had this to say:
"I don't know about you but King Kong vs Godzilla would be a great movie, right?" Yes it is and every fan is eagerly awaiting the Godzilla 2014 sequel release date comes.
