How do you direct ‘Godzilla x Kong’? Adam Wingard took performance notes from his cat
==========
Director Adam Wingard describes 'Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire' as his 'mic-drop monster movie'. The movie, the fifth in Legendary's MonsterVerse franchise, features Kong facing his most challenging foe yet: a toothache. Wingard drew inspiration from his own dental woes while making his 2011 horror breakout film. The director wanted to put the audience in the perspective of the monsters and create a film driven by nonverbal visual sequences. Wingard also expressed his excitement for the traditional red-carpet premiere and the opportunity to release the movie on the biggest screen possible. The movie expands the mythos of the kaiju creatures and introduces a new villain. Wingard aims to inspire future filmmakers and wants the audience to understand the monsters as characters. He took inspiration for Godzilla's mannerisms from his cat. Wingard is interested in developing a horror project but would be open to making another MonsterVerse film if asked.
