Legendary Pictures: Distribution

 All of the films in Legendary's MonsterVerse are set to be distributed by Warner Bros. (except in Japan, where Toho will distribute the Godzilla films), despite Legendary's distribution partner, at the time, being Universal Pictures. This was because Toho's deal with Legendary to grant them the Godzilla license was made exclusively with it and Warner Bros. Legendary had a distribution deal with Universal Pictures for its King Kong films series such as ‘Kong; skull Island’ (2017) and other Kaiju films including, ‘Pacific Rim’ (2013) and ‘Pacific Rim Uprising’ (2018). Legendary and Warner Bros. have continued to collaborate on the Godzilla series, and set it in the same universe as 2014's Godzilla to enable the crossover film ‘Godzilla vs Kong’ for 2021. Legendary Entertainment has overall produced 53 feature films. Of which, 48 have had theatrical releases, one has had a direct-to-video release, and four have had video-on-demand releases.
