Godzilla vs. Kong
There ’s a good chance that Mothra , who died inGodzilla : King of the Monsters , may return inGodzilla vs. Kong . If so , it would be Mothra ’s 2nd MonsterVerse show . Considering the plate ofKing of the Monsters , it seems unbelievable that Warner Bros. and Legendary will follow it up with a motion-picture show that only include two Titans , so more monsters may be confirmed in the cheeseparing future .
The concluding struggle inGodzilla : King of the Monstersconsisted of a brutal two - on - two match , with Godzilla taking on King Ghidorah and Mothra going head - to - head with Rodan . Godzilla was fight against a power - up King Ghidorah , while Mothra was able to incapacitate Rodan with her cut , but unfortunately , Mothra ’s backstage were burned beyond repair by Rodan ’s fire . Instead of give in to her wound , Mothra took a direct blast from King Ghidorah and allowed her life essence to feed into Godzilla . In amoment that originally belonged to Rodan , Mothra sacrificed herself so that Godzilla would have the power needed to beat Ghidorah .

Of the four Toho kaiju featured inKing of the Monsters , only Godzilla and Rodan made it out alive . Both can easily return inGodzilla vs. Kong , and there ’s grounds that Mothra may be along for the drive as well . First of all , the citation ofKing of the Monsterssets up Mothra ’s return by revealing the being of a giant egg , and the credit tease that the egg may belong to to Mothra . If this is true , then the orchis could soon think of and top to the birth of a raw Mothra , as is often done in Toho ’s movies . Mothra is essentially an eternal creature on some horizontal surface , invariably being reborn .
The possibility that Mothra is in secret inGodzilla vs. Kongis bear out by the fact that one of the three returning chuck members fromGodzilla : King of the Monstersis Zhang Ziyi , who trifle Dr. Chen , and for one brief scene , Dr. Chen ’s twin baby . Ziyi ’s characters are modernize versions of the Twin Fairiesfrom the classical Toho movies . In the original films , the Twin Fairies have a cryptic connexion with Mothra and are to a great extent tortuous in Mothra ’s stories . That connexion is translated to the MonsterVerse when Dr. Chen explains her family ’s history , and when her sister watch out Mothra ’s metamorphosis .
Interestingly , there were originally contrive to expand on Dr. Chen ’s role in a post - credits scene for the picture show . WhileGodzilla : King of the Monstershad a credits scenefeaturing Charles Dance ’s Jonah and one of Ghidorah ’s sever head , the filmmaker plan on filming another one with Dr. Chen and her sister . In that unfilmed scene , the Sister fulfil inside an ancient temple in Tokyo , and one of the sisters expresses her vexation with something they ’re about to do . They then enter a chamber in which a second Mothra egg is bring out with another hardening of identical similitude signing the Mothra call , thus trying to hatch the egg ( viaComicBookMovie ) .
sure as shooting , the scene was never filmed , but considering that it was once on the agenda , the storyline can be revisited in the future . Zhang Ziyi being inGodzilla vs. Kongmeans that both sisters can be in the new motion-picture show . Their psychic connection to Mothra can be an asset for Monarch ( if that ’s a route the dealership chooses to go in ) , especially if they need to acquire the Titan ’s help . Plus , with Godzilla set to battle Kong in the film , the current King of the Monsters can utilise all the help he can get . So it ’s potential that Mothra , who is one of Toho ’s most democratic creations , could emerge once again as an friend to Godzilla inGodzilla vs Kong .
