It ’s still unclear incisively what role each Titan will have inKing of the Monsters , but it ’s potential that Ghidorah will again be the principal menace to all life on the planet and it ’ll be some combining of Godzilla , Rodan , and Mothra that will be needed to take him down . Early in the trailer , Ghidorah - easy identify by his clear-cut three dragon heads - can be seen frozen in ice and after on , uprise from the sea and spread his monolithic wings . But there ’s another guesswork of Ghidorah where he ’s realize prowl behind Millie Bobby Brown ’s Madison Russell , suggesting that she ’s in for a close showdown with the monolithic , three - head dragon .
The shot in interrogative ( at around 1:55 in the trailer ) sees Madison tolerate with her back to a big windowpane as she looks scared and panicked . It ’s a blinking and you ’ll miss it kind of guesswork , but if you look closely , there are two of King Ghidorah ’s three dragon capitulum peering through the window at her . It can be a petty tough to distinguish given how morose the prospect appears , but the multiple glowing eyes are the clue that there ’s more than one elephantine colossus head depend in the window . And there ’s only one Titan with more than one head .
Of course , it ’s impossible to make out just where this scene lessen in the flick , but seeing as Ghidorah is frozen in the Arctic at the first of the film , this shot must make out after he ’s been come alive . We know Madison and her mother , Vera Farmiga ’s Dr. Emma Russell , are at one point kidnapped by an organization with villainous plans for the Titans , so it ’s potential this organization is responsible for unleash Ghidorah . By looking at other snapshot in the trailers , this mysterious system ( peradventure Monarch ) are who bring Madison and Emma to the Arctic understructure where they ’re holding Ghidorah , suggesting that mother and daughter are somehow necessary in awakening the demon . Emma ’s enquiry reportedly involves put across with the Titans via bioacoustics , but then it ’s also been suggested that Madison contain a particular connection to the monsters - specifically Mothra , which is backed up by a scene of her reaching out and touching the creature when it ’s in its larvae form .
No matter how it is that King Ghidorah is wake up , the monumental dragon is certain to work mayhem wherever it go . Thanks to that agile shot in the trailer , it appears that at least some part of its violent disorder will see it near a edifice where Madison has take refuge , perchance even the same building Madison is run across stand on the roof of at the start of the trailer . We wo n’t learn what happen to Madison after Ghidorah spot her untilGodzilla : B. B. King of the Monstersreleases , but it ’s indisputable to be an absolutely terrifying sequence . After all , a giant kaiju with one head is shivery enough , but three ! That ’s horrifying .
