King Kong Movies: Kong and Godzilla Crossovers
When two of cinema's most iconic titans meet, the result is spectacular monster mayhem. This watch order focuses on the three films where King Kong and Godzilla share the screen.
The rivalry began in 1962 when Toho brought Kong to Japan for the first-ever clash of these legendary creatures. Nearly six decades later, Legendary's MonsterVerse revived the matchup with modern effects and deeper mythology. While they start as enemies in both eras, these films ultimately explore how even the mightiest of monsters must sometimes work together against common threats.
