Deadline reports that Legendary Pictures' Thomas Tull is moving his untitled SKULL ISLAND King Kong film to Warner Bros Pictures. This move will mean that King Kong will be united with Legendary's other famous monster Godzilla. After the current Godzilla sequel that is in the works, it is rumored that the giant fire-breathing reptile will come face to face with the equally giant ape.

The KONG: SKULL ISLAND film has already begun casting. Brie Larson, Tom Hiddleston and Corey Hawkins are set to star in the film as well Samuel L. Jackson. Both Tom Wilkinson and John C. Reilly are atop the list for snagging main roles. Jordan Vogt-Roberts is directing a script by John Gatins and Max Borenstein, and they are set to start production late this year or early 2016. Universal had been set to release the film March 10, 2017, with a Imax 3D a big part of the release plan. Legendary's Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni produce with Mary Parent, with Alex Garcia and Eric McLeod executive producing.
