Yahoo News Monarch: Legacy of Monsters confirms big change for season 2
Monarch: Legacy of Monsters has a big change for the upcoming season 2.
Set in the same universe as Legendary's Godzilla and Kong films, the series delves into the mysterious organisation and their connection to the giant beasties across generations.
As reported by Variety, season 2 will move production from British Columbia, Canada, to Queensland, Australia. It will be the biggest-ever series to film in the state, and the producers will be able to take advantage of various subsidies.
Queensland’s Minister for the Arts, Leeanne Enoch, stated: "It's been a blockbuster year for screen production in Queensland and the Miles Government is proud to welcome this significant series to the sunshine state.

"Season 2 of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters will provide jobs for around 1,000 local cast and crew. It's a big boost for small businesses who will help deliver the production – everything from accommodation, medical services and catering to security, transport and wardrobe supplies."
When season 2 was confirmed, Apple TV+'s head of international development, Morgan Wandell, said in a statement: "Monarch: Legacy of Monsters has left an indelible imprint on the hearts, minds and imaginations of audiences around the world, led by the brilliance of [co-creators Chris Black and Matt Fraction], Kurt [and] Wyatt [Russell] and the incredibly gifted talented cast and creative team.
"We couldn't be more excited for viewers to not only have the chance to experience even more thrills in season 2, but to embark on epic, new journeys in the franchise, as we expand Legendary's MonsterVerse."
