*Actor O’Shea Jackson Jr. and director Michael Dougherty attended an early screening in Los Angeles of “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” on Friday night (05-10-19). But they weren’t the only special guests at Hollywood’s ArcLight Cinema Dome theater. Godzilla made an appearance, including the lighting of his famous laser bursting through the roof.
A sequel to 2014’s “Godzilla,” and the third installment in Warner Bros. Monsterverse, fans can expect a lot of monster fighting.
In the film, a segment of the crypto-zoological agency Monarch face off against a battery of god-sized monsters, including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the three-headed King Ghidorah. When these ancient super-species-thought to be mere myths-rise again, they all vie for supremacy, leaving humanity’s very existence hanging in the balance.
