Monarch Season 2 Gets New BTS Photo As Filming Officially Wraps

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters season 2 has gotten a new behind-the-scenes photo featuring the cast as filming for the Monsterverse TV show officially wraps. Monarch season 1 ended with Cate Randa (Anna Sawai), May (Kiersey Clemons), and Keiko (Mari Yamamoto) returning from the Hollow Earth in an Operation Hourglass vehicle. However, they end up on Skull Island two years later, learning Kentaro (Ren Watabe) and Hiroshi (Takehiro Hira) have joined Apex Cybernetics. Filming for season 2 began in July 2024, promising Kong’s formal introduction into the series after his cameo in the final moments of season 1.

Now, Apple TV has posted a behind-the-scenes image of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters season 2, showing Sawai, Clemons, Watabe, and Hira celebrating in front of the crashed Operation Hourglass vehicle. The post’s caption confirmed the new episodes have officially finished filming, while asking viewers not to look too deep into what seems like destroyed parts of a building in the background.

One Step Closer To Seeing The Story Continue

The story of Monarch season 2 is expected to provide answers about why Kentaro and Hiroshi have aligned themselves with Apex despite May’s contentious past with them. Their outpost on Skull Island appears to confirm they were researching Kong prior to the events of Godzilla vs. Kong, when they created Mechagodzilla. However, the events of season 2 are still taking place even before Godzilla: King of the Monsters, confirming the technology company is still far from completing development of the robotic Titan.

Season 1 of the Monsterverse TV show started filming in July 2022 before season 1 began its release in November 2023. Given that Monarch: Legacy of Monsters season 2 began filming in July 2024, it wouldn’t be outside the realm of possibility for the show to come back later this year. While nothing has been confirmed yet, season 2 finishing filming is one massive step toward the show’s return. It also signals the importance of this new chapter in the franchise and how it will expand the Titan-focused universe.
