Fresh off a key role in Jordan Peele’s Get Out, we learned over the weekend that Bradley Whitford (The Cabin in the Woods) is the latest to join the cast of Trick ‘r Treat writer/director Michael Dougherty’s Godzilla: King of the Monsters. According to IMDb, Whitford is playing a character named Dr. Stanton in the sequel to 2014’s reboot.

Additionally, Dougherty himself tweeted out two very interesting tidbits over the weekend. For starters, the titular monster may be getting a new design for the 2019 sequel. Furthermore, we will be seeing A LOT more of him than what we got back in 2014!

Mothra, Rodan and King Ghidorah are expected to be in the film.

The cast also includes Millie Bobby Brown (“Stranger Things”), Ken Watanabe (Godzilla), Aisha Hinds (“Underground”), Charles Dance (“Game of Thrones”), Kyle Chandler (Super 8), Vera Farmiga (The Conjuring), Sally Hawkins (Godzilla), Thomas Middleditch (The Final Girls), Randy Havens (“Stranger Things”) and O’Shea Jackson Jr. (Straight Outta Compton).

Dougherty wrote the script with Zach Shields.

Godzilla: King of Monsters hits theaters on March 22, 2019, with the Adam Wingard-directed Godzilla vs. Kong slated to bow the following year on May 22, 2020.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
