Hiddleston and Jackson, together again, with a big hairy ape in tow?

Oh, and there's also King Kong as well. :P Looks solid and fun as fuck though.

It looks like a Vietnam film with John Goodman, and then King Kong will show up in some way which sets him up for Avengers Kong v Godzilla. Sweet.

Definitely Vietnam Era. Looks like they'll be keeping with the idea of focusing on the humans, and leaving Kong as a force of nature beyond our ability to control.

Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Yes, so later they can do a Godzilla movie with both of them in it.
