Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review Apple TV Plus’ expansion of Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ “MonsterVerse” in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.
Following the thunderous battle between Godzilla and the Titans that leveled San Francisco and the shocking revelation that monsters are real, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters tracks two siblings following in their father’s footsteps to uncover their family’s connection to the secretive organization known as Monarch. Clues lead them into the world of monsters and ultimately down the rabbit hole to Army officer Lee Shaw, taking place in the 1950s and half a century later where Monarch is threatened by what Shaw knows. The dramatic saga — spanning three generations — reveals buried secrets and the ways that epic, earth-shattering events can reverberate through our lives.
The 10-episode series was co-developed and executive produced by Chris Black and Matt Fraction, with Matt Shakman directing the first two episodes. The series stars Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Anders Holm, Joe Tippett, Elisa Lasowski, Wyatt Russell, and Kurt Russell.
