Where Does Netflix's 'Skull Island' Fit in the MonsterVerse Timeline?

After the unexpected success of 2014’s Godzilla, Legendary Pictures kicked off the MonsterVerse, a film franchise inspired by some of the biggest creatures in cinema history. Since the MonsterVerse keeps moving at full speed, with a live-action series and a new movie currently in production, it was only a matter of time before Legendary embraced animation. That's just happened with the release of Skull Island, an original Netflix show set in King Kong’s birthplace.

It’s exciting to explore Skull Island through animation, especially since the show has the strongest cast of characters in any MonsterVerse chapter. However, since Skull Island is part of an expanding franchise, some might wonder if it’s possible to enjoy the Netflix show without watching the Legendary movies. On the contrary, some fans would prefer Skull Island to be intertwined with the rest of the MonsterVerse. There's good news for everybody because Skull Island is a standalone story with multiple nods to the bigger MonsterVerse. And while you don’t need to know anything about Legendary’s productions to watch Skull Island, the series does connect to the MonsterVerse timeline in many clever ways.
