Los Angeles, Jan 21 (TIWN) Network Apple has ordered a live-action Godzilla series from Legendary Television.

Reading between the lines of the first synopsis for this new MonsterVerse story, it sounds like this untitled Apple TV+ series takes place in a very specific era of time. With Monarch still operating as a “secret organization,” and the events of San Francisco directly invoked, that seems to lay down the foundation for this live-action TV project as a midquel that slots in between Godzilla and Godzilla: King of the Monsters. That much seems evident when you revisit the ending to the 2019 sequel, which saw Monarch finally declassifying itself. Should that be the case, there already seems to be an explanation for why that story choice may have been selected.
