When asked if the character would return in a solo movie following his appearance in Godzilla vs. Kong, Vogt-Roberts claimed that he is not aware of any official plans to make a proper sequel to Kong: Skull Island.
Kong: Skull Island director Jordan Vogt-Roberts is confident that his version of the 100-foot gorilla will be properly handled in Godzilla vs. Kong, directed by Adam Wingard (You’re Next, Death Note).
In multiple interviews, Vogt-Roberts has discussed how anime influenced Kong: Skull Island, particularly the monsters.
In October 2015, Godzilla vs. Kong was officially announced with a release date of 2020.
