Following the success of Godzilla vs. Kong, discussions commenced on ways that the MonsterVerse could be expanded beyond feature films. Legendary proposed a live-action series, and amongst the potential investors, Apple TV+ expressed immediate interest and negotiated a deal and green-lit the series in January 2022. The project will be a joint-venture production between Legendary Television, Safehouse Pictures and Toho. Chris Black will serve as showrunner.[1][3][4] In May, Matt Shakman was hired to direct the first two episodes in addition to executive producing.[5]

In June, Anna Sawai, Ren Watabe, Kiersey Clemons, Joe Tippett and Elisa Lasowski were cast in the series.[6] In July, Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell were added to the cast,[7] with Mari Yamamoto joining in August.[8] In September 2022, Anders Holm joined the cast while also revealing the show's title.[2]

Filming

In July 2022, it was revealed that principal photography had commenced in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[9] Two weeks of filming occurred in Japan in August.[10]
