The MonsterVerse is continuing with a new Godzilla TV show at Apple TV+, which could have a huge impact on the franchise's future. Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures launched the monster-based franchise in 2014 with Gareth Edwards' Godzilla. The most recent installment Godzilla vs. Kong arrived in 2021 to pit the MonsterVerse's two main Titans against one another. Despite the movie being a box office hit during the pandemic, no sequel or spinoff announcements came, although a Son of Kong movie was reportedly in development.

Based on the description that the untitled Godzilla series takes place following Gojira's battle in San Francisco and the world discovering Titans are real, it appears that the show is set directly after 2014's Godzilla and before its sequels. This gives the series room to explore its own story that is tied to the MonsterVerse canon.
