Thanks to Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, fans got to witness a key moment from Godzilla in a new light.Speaking to Tor, co-showrunners Chris Black and Matt Fraction revealed what it was like recreating the 2014 movie’s opening credit scene involving Godzilla and the Bikini Atoll nuclear test from Lee Shaw’s (Wyatt Russell) perspective. Those credits revealed the test as a cover to neutralize the kaiju, but Fraction and Black sought to portray Monarch’s version of the scene in a morally grey light. “We knew it was this pinnacle crowning achievement for [Monarch]. But what those characters don’t know but we do—is that it failed, right?,” Fraction said, calling it, “a chance to have the holy trinity of Monarch [Keiko, Bill, and Lee] see Godzilla up close and personal for the first time, and each of them come out of the experience with a different opinion of what Godzilla represents.”So far, the Legendary MonsterVerse films have protrayed Godzilla as a quasi-ally of humanity, with Monarch’s trailers even teasing him aiding an adult Shaw (Kurt Russell) and protagonist Cate Randa (Anna Sawai), who was in San Francisco during the events of Godzilla. The series follows Cate as she, her half-brother Kentaro, and hacker May seek out Shaw to learn more about their dad’s past with Monarch, in turn discovering Shaw’s connection to their Monarch-aligned grandparents Bill Randa and Keiko Miura. The former character previously appeared as one of Kong: Skull Island’s leads, with John Goodman reprising his role for Monarch’s opening sequence.
