Legendary Pictures Announces New King Kong Movie “Skull Island” Michael Lee, July 26, 2014July 26, 2014 Briefly: Normally studio panels at comic con like to go out with a big bang, and Legendary Pictures are living up to their names with the new Warcraft and Godzilla 2 announcements. But just before they closed out their panel, the studio announced that they would be doing a new King Kong movie titled Skull Island.
