Apple TV+ has officially kicked off production for the second season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.
A first-look photo from the new season has also been released, teasing the continuation of the show’s multi-generational storyline that dives deeper into the Monsterverse.
“Greetings from Skull Island. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 is in production,” teased Apple.
Season 2 comes as part of Apple TV+’s expanded deal with Legendary Entertainment, which includes additional spinoffs set within the Monsterverse. The franchise, known for its epic scale and ties to Godzilla and Kong, continues to grow with Monarch serving as a pivotal series in the universe.
The show follows siblings on a quest to uncover their family’s ties to Monarch, the mysterious organization tied to the world’s monsters. The narrative shifts across decades, intertwining their journey with the story of Army officer Lee Shaw, portrayed by both Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell.
Season 1 of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters is now available to stream on Apple TV+, delivering a mix of human drama and monster spectacle.
The series follows 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 (played by Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell), 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.
Apple’s renewed investment in the Monsterverse reinforces the franchise’s enduring popularity, with Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire recently proving its box-office strength. Fans can expect more thrilling expansions of the Monsterverse in the future.
