As with every major blockbuster film, potential script and plot leaks are bound to be posted to the internet. Or, at least some will try. Godzilla: King of the Monsters has had it's fair share of "leaks", many of which proved to be untrue, while some were close to the letter.

For the sake of chronicling these leaks for a look back next year, this topic contains one (of many I'm sure) plot leaks for Godzilla vs. Kong 2020. Whether this has any legitimacy behind it or not, we simply do not know - however personally I remain very very skeptical.

But, for the sake of discussion, the entire plot breakdown has been shared below. Of course, in the event that any of the details below are true, we urge you to be cautious as obviously the following will be full of spoilers.

GvK is supposed to be slightly different in the approach of the film's main villain, while in G14, Kong:SI and KoTM the threats were preexisting and something Godzilla and Kong had already faced and had victories against. This time the Threat is meant to be something man made rather than something man just awakened, something Godzilla and Kong aren't ready for. Supposed to be a "Destroy All Monsters" type film, but in name only as the plot revolves around a character devoting his life to destroying every Titan(Mainly Godzilla) on Earth by using cells from the decapitated head of Ghidorah to create a very similar monster to Hedorah, but isn't said monster. Godzilla and Kong have several fights, most being started because Kong sees Godzilla as a threat to humans. Kong is up to Godzilla's chest in height and is as strong as Godzilla, but faster. While Godzilla is slower, but more tank like. Kong doesn't care about/ignores the "Titan Hierarchy" which is why he isn't submissive towards Godzilla, this later leads in the other Titans going berserk. Kong doesn't get a power up or Deus ex Machina to fight Godzilla, it's mostly CQC and brutal. Kong is able to dodge Godzilla's atomic breath when he fires it, he learns from watching the charge up and reacting accordingly. Though is hit directly by it the first time used, which severely hurts Kong and forces him to retreat(First battle). Rodan(Described with Large scar on chest) and the other Titans appear notably after Godzilla and Kong's second and brief fight(Kong breaking off part of Godzilla's dorsal fin and stabbing him in the neck with it), which knocks Godzilla off the throne in the eyes of the other Titans and begin to start challenging both Godzilla and Kong for the throne. Kong and Rodan Fight, resulting in Rodan's death after Kong breaks his neck. Other minor Titans are deposed rather quickly by a mix of Godzilla and Kong killing them, and military action. The Man Made Monster, "World Destroyer" is a large mass of cells that attempts to take shape, but is unable to due to it's body secreting an acid like substance. Though the creature has a regeneration factor that recovers from the damage but not enough to keep a permanent form. "World Destroyer" is able to copy aspects of other monsters temporarily, such as Kong's large arms or Godzilla's tail. The monster is fought by both Godzilla and Kong before their final battle, as it's the first victim to fall into a chamber of the Hollow Earth, killing it. Godzilla and Kong's final battle is at a"Hellscape" version of Mt. Fuji, which is erupting and collapsing due to the plans of the human villain earlier. Mt. Fuji hosts a "Chamber", a pocket that is connected to the Hollow Earth. The Human villain's plan is to collapse the chamber and have the monsters swallowed by it and burning them in Lava and the chemicals being pumped into several chambers. Godzilla wins the battle against Kong, but Godzilla is swallowed into the collapsing chamber before delivering the death blow to Kong. The scene described very similar to the ending of Godzilla 1984 as it's supposed to be an emotional moment that evokes the idea of "If you didn't start this then Godzilla and Kong wouldn't be dying!". Kong survives and makes his way back to Skull Island, while on a submarine, their radars start picking up a large mass appearing from an underwater volcano. A familiar shape starts emerging from the erupting volcano, ending on a fade to black with Godzilla's roar Godzilla and Kong defeat "World Destroyer", making the tone feel like they got through with their differences and are friends now, Nope. Godzilla and Kong start sizing each other up and charging at each other as a burst of lava explodes from the volcano and steam erupting from the ground. Human characters described as crying and emotional in a way like "You both don't have to do this!". After a climatic battle, Kong loses an eye to Godzilla and is tail whipped(Kong in the second fight grabbing it and pulling Godzilla back from a building). Godzilla slowly approaches over Kong and begins charging an atomic breath. Another explosion causes Godzilla to stop and stubble back, he then begins to start sinking into the ground, a final "sad" roar is let out and the ground caves in, swallowing Godzilla, releasing fire and ash into the air as Godzilla is assumed to meet his end there.

This leak originated from a user on reddit who claimed to have insider knowledge. As with any leaks, take with a major grain of salt.

In the meantime, feel free to discuss this plot and let us know what you think!
