Godzilla vs. Kong: Junkie XL says aircraft carrier scene is 18 minutes long

The marketing for director Adam Wingard's upcoming monster mash Godzilla vs. Kong – which will be available to watch in theatres and on the HBO Max streaming service as of March 31st – has focused heavily on a sequence that takes place on and around an aircraft carrier. We've seen it in trailers and on posters, a clip from it was released online, and according to composter Junkie XL there's very good reason why we're seeing so much of this sequence: it takes up 18 minutes of Godzilla vs. Kong's running time, which is reportedly 107 minutes.

Speaking with the Film Junkee Vodka Stream, Junkie XL said, 

I’m not going to say how this thing ends but there’s some spectacular…and then so, this scene that was released today, was it on IGN? Forty seconds of footage? That scene is 18 minutes long and it’s ridiculous."

This sounds very promising, I can't wait to watch Godzilla and Kong brawl at sea for 18 minutes.

Scripted by Mike Dougherty and Terry Rossio, Godzilla vs. Kong has the following synopsis:

In a time when monsters walk the Earth, humanity’s fight for its future sets Godzilla and Kong on a collision course that will see the two most powerful forces of nature on the planet collide in a spectacular battle for the ages. As Monarch embarks on a perilous mission into uncharted terrain and unearths clues to the Titans’ origins, a human conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures, both good and bad, from the face of the earth forever.

The film stars Alexander Skarsgard, Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, Eiza Gonzalez, Jessica Henwick, Julian Dennison, Demian Bichir, Millie Bobby Brown, Kyle Chandler, Zhang Ziyi, Lance Reddick, Hakeem Kae-Kazim, and Shun Oguri.

While we wait to see Godzilla vs. Kong, 1962's King Kong vs. Godzilla is available to purchase HERE.
