Warner Bros. Releasing All 2021 Movies Simultaneously On HBO Max & In Theaters

Warner Media is giving fans an early gift this holiday season with the announcement that their entire upcoming 2021 slate will hit HBO Max at the same time as their film’s theatrical releases. After one month on the streaming service, each film will be removed and then will only be available in theaters until its VOD, On Demand, and home video release. This is huge! There will be a ton of new movies available to subscribers, including Godzilla vs. Kong, The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It, Mortal Combat, The Little Things, In the Heights, Space Jam, Suicide Squad, Malignant, Dune, Matrix 4, Reminiscence, The Many Saints of Newark, King Richard, Cry Macho, and Wonder Woman 1984, and Those Who Wish Me Dead. The reason for the new model is the pandemic. The studio likely made the decision so that there would be no more delays in releases like we’ve seen all year. The movie will also boost

‘Godzilla Vs. Kong’ Gets A Rating

‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ officially has a rating! The upcoming ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ movie has been rated PG-13 “for intense sequences of creature violence/destruction and brief language.” This is the same rating as other movies within the Monsterverse (‘Godzilla’, ‘Kong: Skull Island’, and ‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’) so this is no surprise. “In a time when monsters walk the Earth, humanity’s fight for its future sets Godzilla and Kong on a collision course that will see the two most powerful forces of nature on the planet collide in a spectacular battle for the ages. As Monarch embarks on a perilous mission into uncharted terrain and unearths clues to the Titans’ origins, a human conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures, both good and bad, from the face of the earth forever.” Hopefully, now that there is a rating in place, we will get a trailer and we can get this titanic battle started!

‘Godzilla: King Of Monsters’ Star Says The Movie Is Something You’ll Never Forget

Godzilla: King of Monsters, from Trick ‘r Treat director Michael Daugherty, is set to arrive in theater in 2020. Co-written by Daugherty and Zach Shields, the film is the next installment of Legendary’s MonsterVerse and will set the stage for Godzilla’s battle with King Kong. King of Monsters will follow the heroic efforts of the Monarch agency, a crypto-zoological agency that handles gigantic monsters, including Godzilla who will face Rodan, Mothra, and 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.” Filming recently wrapped for the film which made it possible for actor O’Shea Jackson Jr. to tease the upcoming fight during a conversation with Collider. In the last scene between Godzilla and King Ghidorah, I promise you, you will never forget it, in your life,” the actor promised. “As a nerd, I am foaming at the mouth to get in the editing

In the film a diverse team of explorers are brought together to venture deep into an uncharted island in the pacific – as beautiful as it is treacherous – unaware that they are crossing into the domain of the mythic Kong. Tom Hiddleston, Brice Larson, John Goodman, Samuel L. Jackson, Jason Mitchell, Tom Wilkinson, Corey Hawkins, Jason Mitchell, John Ortiz and Thomas Mann star. ‘Kong: Skull Island’ opens in theaters nationwide on March 10, 2017 from Warner Bros. and Legendary.
