Whilst ‘Monsters’ helmer Gareth Edwards is hard at work on his new creature feature reboot of ‘Godzilla’ its down to Brit TV director Tom Green (‘Misfits’) to takeover and make his directorial debut with sequel ‘Monsters: Dark Continent’. A new short but sweet teaser for the follow-up has arrived thanks to Empire giving us an early sneak peek at the new flick. It’s only 60 seconds in length and doesn’t feature a heck of a lot but it’s a teaser what do you expect!? Be grateful people. ‘Monsters: Dark Continent’ is currently shooting in Jordan and stars Johnny Harris (‘Snow White and the Huntsman’), Joe Dempsie -below (‘Game of Thrones’) and Sam Keeley.
Seven years on from the events of Monsters, and the ‘Infected Zones’ have spread worldwide. Humans have been knocked off the top of the food chain, with disparate communities struggling for survival. American soldiers are being sent abroad to protect US interests from the Monsters, but the war is far from being won.Noah, a haunted soldier with several tours under his belt, is sent on a mission: an American soldier has gone rogue deep in the Infected Zone, and Noah must reach him and take him out. But when Noah’s unit and transport are destroyed, he finds himself with only a young and inexperienced cadet for company – the brother of the man Noah has been sent to kill.The two soldiers must go on a life-altering journey through the dark heart of monster territory, accompanied by a young local woman to guide them. By the time the three of them reach their goal, they will have been forced to confront the fear that the true monsters on the planet may not be alien after all.”
