The film has added a new member to the cast in the person of Will Brittain. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Brittain is expected to play as a pilot alongside Corey Hawkins, and Jason Mitchell. He is the latest addition to the cast that includes Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, Tom Wilkinson, John C. Reilly, and Brie Larson among many others.

Moreover, Kong: Skull Island lead Tom Hiddleston also revealed the things that are not to be expected from the upcoming project. As reported by Cinemablend, Hiddleston stated that they are trying to provide something new in the myth of the gigantic ape.

"It's not set in the '30s. There's no movie director with a map. There's no out-of-work actress down on her luck. All of that stuff is respected, we're just trying to do something new with the myth because Kong is an icon of movies. I think he's someone people want to see again", Hiddleston said.

Kong: Skull Island is set to "fully immerse audiences in the mysterious and dangerous home of the king of the apes as a team of explorers ventures deep inside the treacherous, primordial island". It will be directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts and is set for theatrical release on March 10, 2017.
