No surprise here!

The King of the Monsters stomped the competition at the box office. Confirmed to Deadline, Warner Bros. and Legendary pictures are planning to move forward with a ‘Godzilla’ sequel. There is no confirmation if director Gareth Edwards will return to direct the sequel, but I’m sure he will. 

After opening to $103M internationally — the biggest opening of 2014 so far — and grossing $93M domestic stateside this weekend, it should come as no surprise that Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros.‘ are already developing a sequel to the monster hit. It was confirmed to Deadline this morning that a Godzilla sequel is underway. The beast is currently stomping across international markets to take No. 1 spots in most territories.

Godzilla surprised everyone right out of the gate in late nights Thursday with a $9.3M haul and continued to rake in the bucks through the weekend. It is the highest IMAX opener so far this year with $14.1M (or 15%) of the domestic gross and IMAX screens brought in 51% of the international gross. – Via Deadline 

Director Gareth Edwards has indicated that the sequel would share the same ‘restraint’ as the first film. I just want to see more monsters like Rodan and Ghidorah. 

What are your thoughts on the sequel? Yay or Nay. Chime in below!
