A new TV spot for Godzilla vs. Kong focuses on Kong and his connection with Jia (Kaylee Hottle).
The TV spot, titled "Promise," features Jia and Kong in a massive hi-tech prison designed to look like Kong's home of Skull Island. Kong promptly picks up a tree, strips it of its foliage and hurls it through the air -- where it bounces off a massive hi-tech shield. Other footage features Kong and Godzilla's battle atop an aircraft carrier and Kong roaring in Godzilla's face, with the King of the Monsters roaring right back.
"I made a promise to protect her," Illene Andrews (Rebecca Hall) says about Jia, who she took under her care. "He did the same." Jia is frequently shown holding a makeshift Kong doll and mimicking the massive ape beating his chest, leading to Kong doing the same.
Previous TV spots for Godzilla vs. Kong have shown the Monarch organization capturing Kong in order to battle a rampaging Godzilla. Director Adam Wingard has also said in a featurette that Godzilla vs. Kong is split into two stories, with one following Kong and the other following Godzilla -- and that both stories will eventually intersect, given the nature of the film.
Directed by Adam Wingard and written by Eric Pearson and Max Borenstein, Godzilla vs. Kong stars Alexander Skarsgard, Millie Bobby Brown, Rebecca Hall and Brian Tyree Henry. The film arrives in theaters and on HBO Max on March 31.
