'Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire' coming July 4 to Max
June 27 (UPI) -- Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is coming to Max next week.
Max announced in a press release Thursday that the film will start streaming on its service July 4.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is a live-action monster film starring Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, Dan Stevens, Kaylee Hottle, Alex Ferns and Fala Chen.
The movie is a sequel to Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) and the fifth film in Legendary and Warner Bros.' Monsterverse, a fictional universe featuring Godzilla, King Kong and other Toho Co. characters.
The New Empire "follows Kong's journey to find his family through an undiscovered layer of Hollow Earth -- and what he uncovers inadvertently brings forth the most dangerous threat to mankind yet... one that can only be countered (and possibly countered) by the combined forces of Kong and Godzilla, now evolved like never before," an official synopsis reads.
The film originally opened in theaters in March and topped the North American box office two weekends in a row.
