In this video, I will be looking over many of Godzilla's most impressive official crossovers to see how he stacks up to alternate worlds full of defenders, super heroes, giant mechs; many from our favorite franchises. Is Godzilla him? Can he lose?

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is an upcoming American monster film directed by Adam Wingard. Produced by Legendary Pictures and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it is a sequel to Godzilla vs. Kong (2021), and the fifth film in the MonsterVerse franchise. It is also the 38th film of the Godzilla franchise, the 13th film in the King Kong franchise, and the fifth Godzilla film to be completely produced by an American film studio.[a] The film stars Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, Dan Stevens, Kaylee Hottle, Alex Ferns, and Fala Chen. Hall, Henry and Hottle reprise their roles from the previous film. In the film, Kong encounters more of his species in the Hollow Earth and must join forces with Godzilla to stop their tyrannical leader from destroying the surface.

Because of the box office and streaming success of Godzilla vs. Kong during the COVID-19 pandemic, Legendary announced a sequel in March 2022 and that filming would commence later in the year. In May 2022, it was announced that Wingard would return to direct and Stevens had been cast as a lead. Filming began in July 2022 in Gold Coast, Queensland, and finished in November 2022.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is scheduled to premiere at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on March 25, 2024, and Warner Bros. is slated to release it internationally on March 27 and in the United States two days later.

After a confrontation between the Justice League and the Legion of Doom, the villains' actions unknowingly break the boundaries of reality and a dimensional rift opens between universes to an alternate Earth: the MonsterVerse. From it, Godzilla, Kong, and other Titans and creatures begun to cross over into the DC Universe, as devastating attacks from monsters begin spreading across the globe.

The epic crossover begins with Superman, who has dealt with Titano and is about to go on his first vacation ever whilst his cousin Kara aka Supergirl temporarily joins the Justice League to fill in his duties. Clark is enjoying a very important planned dinner date with his girlfriend Lois Lane that's suddenly interrupted when the entire city of Metropolis shudders under the immense weight and presence of Godzilla arising from the bay. Superman then flies out to combat the King of the Monsters himself.

Having been awakened and mutated by a nuclear explosion, Godzilla first appears by bursting out of an iceberg near Alaska and was soon confronted by S.H.I.E.L.D., who unsuccessfully attempted to restrain the monster with Stark Industries technology. Nick Fury tasks Dum Dum Dugan with forming a 'Godzilla Squad' to stop the kaiju, including fellow agents Jimmy Woo and Gabe Jones, scientist Doctor Yuriko Takiguchi and his grandson Robert "Little Rob" Takiguchi, and genius Tamara Hashioka. Joined by Gabe Jones, they successfully drive Godzilla back into the sea when the monster attacks Seattle. Godzilla re-emerges in San Francisco and destroys the Golden Gate Bridge before being driven off by the combined efforts of the Godzilla Squad and Champions, with Hercules able to best the monster in combat.

The Godzilla Squad then had to deal with the similar creations of the evil Doctor Demonicus, which ended up being defeated by Godzilla himself. Despite this brief alliance of convenience, the Godzilla Squad received the new Behemoth Helicarrier, together with the Tony Stark-created mecha Red Ronin to confront the monster. However, the sympathetic Rob took control of the latter, helping save Godzilla after a battle near San Diego.

In order to cut down the damage caused by Godzilla's rampages, the Godzilla Squad expose the creature to Pym particles, reducing its height to around 12 inches tall and transporting him to New York City for study. However Godzilla escapes shortly after arrival, and after battling a sewer rat begins to grow again. Rob attempts to disguise the now 4-foot tall Godzilla through the city's streets in a hat and trenchcoat without success as the monster grows to seven feet and fights Dugan and Jones at the docks. With the aid of the Fantastic Four, the 20-foot and still growing Godzilla was lured to a museum but was then accidentally sent back in time. and teamed up with Devil Dinosaur and Moon Boy. Following this Godzilla reappeared full-size in Times Square, where S.H.I.E.L.D., the Fantastic Four and the Avengers attempted to steer him away from the city. In the end Rob is able to persuade Godzilla to spare the city, and return to the sea.
