Kong was named by the Iwi natives of Skull Island. The name also corresponds to the name of Congo, an African country known for its population of gorillas, the apes that Kong greatly resembles.
Eight months were spent designing Kong with the goal of making him a powerful anti-hero with an element of humanity to make audiences feel an affinity for Kong. The director asked for the MonsterVerse Kong's design to be inspired by, and act as a throwback to the 1933 film's design, while being truly identifiable as the \\"2017 version of Kong.\\" Famed creature designer Carlos Huante created an anatomically updated physique by referencing posed frames from the 1933 film. Honoring the original de...
Kong is proven to be at least partly carnivorous, feeding on animals such as a Mire Squid that he killed. It's also implied that he ate one of Packard's soldiers, however, this is also proven to be inadvertent as the man falls into Kong's mouth while the latter holds a helicopter above himself as he roars.Kong seems to show a great deal of loneliness, as a result to him losing his parents to the Skullcrawlers at a very young age as well as being the last of his kind, his eyes well up with tea...
Kong is shown to be great climber, being able to scale sheer cliffs and mountain faces with relative ease (largely in part due to his size).
Kong's species are naturally born without armor, unlike Godzilla whose has incredibly thick scales that make him resist attacks from enemies. Kong can get injured more easily, which is shown when the rotor blades of one of Packard's helicopters grazed his palm, suffering sever wounds to his arm from helicopter artillery rounds, and being half-scorched alive by napalm fire.
1. Kong is referred to merely as \\"Kong\\" and not the usual moniker of \\"King Kong\\" (the official bio references this, stating the 'story of how Kong became king'). 2. At 104 feet (~31.7 meters) in height, the MonsterVerse Kong is currently the second largest incarnation of the ape kaiju to date. 3. Kong is an adolescent, as the skeletons of much larger apes (his deceased parents) are seen strewn along the ground of the Bone Graveyard (also known as the \\"Valley of Fallen Gods\\"). 4. Kong ripping...
