Every Kaiju Who Could Fight MonsterVerse's Son Of Kong
The MonsterVerse has a handful of options it can turn to when picking Son of Kong’s villain. Legendary Pictures has yet to confirm it, but Son of Kong is rumored to be the title of the planned Godzilla vs. Kong sequel. That would make it an adaptation of the 1933 sequel to the original King Kong movie.
If these rumors are true, both alpha Titans will be taking a backseat to a much younger (and smaller) monster for the fifth MonsterVerse movie. Though it would naturally be very different from the first Son of Kong film, it stands to reason that it would follow a similar concept. The 1933 movie explored the exploits of King Kong’s 12-foot-tall albino offspring. Since the MonsterVerse Kong doesn’t even have a son yet (much less a mate), it’s expected that as the original version of the character, the titular character will be a fraction of his father’s size. Even if the MonsterVerse skips a few years into the future, it'll be a long time – perhaps even a century or two — before he can reach Kong’s height.

A story centered on a much younger and inexperienced Kong promises an adventure that’s completely unique to anything that the MonsterVerse has already done. Considering that he can’t be in the same league as his father, the movie may be severely limited in terms of who it can use as its villains. Fan-favorite monsters like Destoroyah, Gigan, and Biollante are all too powerful to work as his opponent and are better suited as villains for Godzilla or Kong. However, there are at least a few kaiju that could be properly reimagined and inserted into a Son of Kong story. Here’s every monster who could fight Kong’s son on the big screen.
