If you’ve seen theepic first trailerfor Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, you might have noticed Kong sporting a mysterious bit of tech on his arm. You can get a good look at it when Kong and Godzilla are storming side by side through what looks to be a tunnel of some kind. Just what the glove is, however, remains to be seen.
Speaking toTotal Film in our new issueout this Thursday, which features Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire on the cover, director Adam Wingard teases more about that interesting gauntlet.
“It’s kind of hard to say too much more than that without spoiling anything, because he has one of my favourite intros of any character I’ve ever shot in my films,” Wingard reveals. “What I will say is I’d want to play with that [action figure] if I was a kid! And though Apex isn’t in this story in a literal way, we kind of hint that Monarch absorbed a lot of the Apex technology after the last film. The glove Kong is wearing, it’s somewhat insinuated that’s Apex technology.”
