English Summary:

Kong: Skull Island is a 2017 American monster film directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts and written by Dan Gilroy, Max Borenstein and Derek Connolly. It is a reboot of the King Kong franchise, and serves as the second film in Legendary's MonsterVerse. The film stars Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, Brie Larson, Jing Tian, Toby Kebbell, John Ortiz, Corey Hawkins, Jason Mitchell, Shea Whigham, Thomas Mann, Terry Notary, and John C. Reilly. In the film, set in 1973, a team of scientists and Vietnam War soldiers travel to the uncharted Skull Island and encounter terrifying creatures before meeting the mighty Kong, a gigantic ape who is the last of his species.

In 1944, two World War II fighter pilots, American pilot Hank Marlow and Japanese pilot Gunpei Ikari, parachute onto an island in the South Pacific after a dogfight and engage in close combat, but the fight is interrupted by a giant 100-foot ape. 29 years later, Bill Randa, head of the U.S. government organization Monarch, plans a search for primeval creatures on the recently discovered Skull Island. He recruits a U.S. Army unit commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Preston Packard, tracker and former British Special Air Service Captain James Conrad, and anti-war photographer Mason Weaver. Arriving at Skull Island, Packard's men begin dropping seismic explosives, developed by Randa's seismologist Houston Brooks, to map out the island and prove Brooks' Hollow Earth theory. The unit is then attacked by the giant ape, scattering the survivors across the island. Two groups form between the survivors, one with Conrad, Weaver, the researchers and one of the soldiers, the other with Randa and the rest. Packard goes in search of the transport helicopter piloted by his right-hand man Major Jack Chapman, intending to use the weapons on board to kill the ape.

Hungarian Summary:

Az 1970-es években járunk. Egy csapat felfedező mélyre merészkedik annak a feltérképezetlen csendes-óceáni szigetnek a belsejébe, mely egyszerre gyönyörűséges és veszélyes is, és ahonnan a majmok legendás királya, King Kong származik.

Cast / Szereplők:

• Tom Hiddleston as James Conrad:
  A former British Special Air Service Captain who served in the Vietnam War with the Australian Special Air Service Regiment, hired as a hunter-tracker for the expedition by Randa.^[8] Hiddleston described his character as a man who holds "no political allegiance in the conflict" but "understands conflict", further stating, "He's a former soldier who has been formed by an understanding of war, but his specific skill set is something that's attached to the power of nature; and I think that's something people haven't seen in a long time".
• Samuel L. Jackson as Preston Packard:
  A United States Army Lieutenant Colonel and leader of the Sky Devils helicopter squadron, assigned to escort the group of explorers on the expedition. Jackson compares his character to Captain Ahab from Moby-Dick, stating, "He does have to exact some measure of revenge for the people he's lost. That's just the nature of how we operate—eye for an eye!".^[9]
• John Goodman as Bill Randa:
  A senior official in the government organization Monarch, who is in charge of the expedition.
• Brie Larson as Mason Weaver:
  An anti-war photographer and investigative photojournalist. Larson stated that her character has her "own sort of motive" as to why she joined the expedition: "That's the interesting thing about this movie. It's a group of misfits that are all coming from different angles looking at the same thing. You get to see how many different views in regards to nature and how we should handle it are dealt with from many different perspectives".^[9] Larson further added that Weaver has an "interest and respect for nature" and "Through that she has a closer, more loving, and intimate relationship with Kong".^[9]
• Jing Tian as San Lin:
  A biologist working for Monarch. According to Vogt-Roberts and Borenstein, her role was originally larger but had been reduced. Alison de Souza of the Straits Times wrote that in the final film Jing Tian's role would be described in Chinese as a "hua ping" (花瓶), meaning a vase, which refers to insignificant roles, and that she "hardly does or says a thing."^[10]
• Toby Kebbell as Jack Chapman:
  A United States Army major and Sea Stallion helicopter pilot who is Packard's right-hand man.^[11]
• John Ortiz as Victor Nieves:
  A senior Landsat official on the expedition.
• Corey Hawkins as Houston Brooks:
  A geologist and Yale University graduate, recruited for the expedition by Monarch for his groundbreaking theories on seismology.^[11] An older version portrayed by Joe Morton appears in Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
• Jason Mitchell as Glenn Mills:
  A warrant officer and helicopter pilot of the Sky Devils and close friend of Cole.
• Shea Whigham as Earl Cole:
  A seasoned Captain of the Sky Devils who wields an AK-47 instead of an M16 and close friend of Mills.
• Thomas Mann as Reg Slivko:
  A warrant officer of the Sky Devils, known for carrying a portable record player.
• Terry Notary and Toby Kebbell^[12] as King Kong (mo-cap performance):
  A 104-foot-tall gorilla who is the last of his kind and is worshiped as the king and god on Skull Island by the Iwi natives.^[13] Notary stated that this Kong is an adolescent and he tried to play Kong like a "14-year-old that's trapped in the life of an adult", stating that it took three days to film the motion capture scenes.^[14] In addition to playing Chapman, Toby Kebbell also provided some facial references for Kong, stating, "I gave some facial reference – certain subtleties, certain looks. Terry and I worked on stuff together and created what Kong needed. I was just there as backup for pieces that Terry really wanted to get details on. It's a real honor to be asked by someone who's a great performer, to come and help support their performance."
• John C. Reilly as Hank Marlow:
  A U.S. Army Air Forces lieutenant of the 45th Pursuit Squadron who has been stranded for nearly 29 years on Skull Island since World War II. He knows the creatures of the island, and is a friend of the Iwi natives. Will Brittain portrays a young Hank Marlow, and also plays Marlow's son.
