==Notes/Trivia==
* This is the first film in Phase 2 of Legendary's MonsterVerse to not mention or feature Godzilla and Kong.
* This is the second film in the MonsterVerse to have a trilogy, the first being Godzilla (2014) to Godzilla vs Kong.
*Although Kong and Godzilla are not mentioned or seen, this film somewhat teases Kong: Skull Island (which came out in 2017) (some creatures on the computer screen/stock footage).
*The Kongamato cave painting in the post-credits scene will have a different design. The post-credits scene in Godzilla and Kong: The Rise of Mega King Ghidorah also features a Kongamato cave painting.
*The post-credits scene features an Alpha Kasai Rex fighting a Rhedosaurus. It is hinted that it might be in a future Phase 3 film of the MonsterVerse.
*Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, and Mark Ruffalo previously portrayed characters in Godzilla and Kong: The Rise of Mega King Ghidorah.
