Connie Nielsen & Stana Katic Join Wyatt Russell in Apple's New Monsterverse Series

Connie Nielsen ("Gladiator", "Wonder Woman") and Stana Katic ("Castle", "Absentia") are the most recent additions to the cast of Legendary's new Apple TV Monsterverse series. The cast is led by Wyatt Russell ("Monarch: Legacy of Monsters"), who also executive produces. Russell reprises his role from "Monarch: Legacy of Monsters". In that show, Russell's father Kurt Russell played an older version of the character.

The series follows the story of Col. Lee Shaw (Russell), an American operative who, in 1984, went on a secret mission behind enemy lines in an attempt to stop the Soviets from unleashing a horrific new Titan big enough to destroy the U.S. and turn the tide of the Cold War.

The cast also includes Millie Brady, Pilou Asbaek, Corey Stoll, Ralph Ineson and Nyasha Hatendi. Character details are under wraps. Joby Harold is the showrunner.

Legendary's Monsterverse is an "expansive cross-platform story universe centered on humanity's battle to survive in a world facing a catastrophic new reality: the monsters of myths and legends are real". The franchise started in 2014 with "Godzilla", and also includes "Kong: Skull Island" (2017), "Godzilla: King of the Monsters" (2019), "Godzilla vs. Kong" (2021), "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" (2024), and the upcoming sequel "Godzilla x Kong: Supernova" (2027).

Harold and Tory Tunnell executive produce for Safehouse Pictures alongside Russell, Chris Black, Kyle Bradstreet, Alex Boden, Dillard, Andy Goddard and James Skotchdopoloe. Hiro Matsuoka and Takemasa Arita executive produce on behalf of Toho Co.

WONDER WOMAN Origin Trailer and New Posters

Warner Bros. has released a new trailer and some posters for the upcoming DCEU movie "Wonder Woman". The film is directed by Patty Jenkins ("Monster") and it stars Gal Gadot as the titular superheroine. Hopes are high for this one as the fate of DC Comics adaptations hangs in the balance following the failures of "Batman v. Superman" and "Suicide Squad". Although a combined worldwide cume of 1.6 billion can hardly be seen as a failure, DC's Marvel-like combined universe is just too flawed for comfort. This movie has the extra burden of having to course-correct the DCEU before the arrival of the "Justice League" movie.

"Wonder Woman" also stars Chris Pine, Robin Wright, Danny Huston, David Thewlis, Connie Nielsen, Elena Anaya, Ewen Bremner, Lucy Davis, Lisa Loven Kongsli, Eugene Brave Rock and Saïd Taghmaoui.

The film is set to open in theaters on June 2nd.
