King Kong (2005) Starring: Andy Serkis, Naomi Watts, Jack Black, Adrien Brody, Thomas Kretschmann, Colin Hanks, Kyle Chandler Directed by: Peter Jackson This movie will be based upon the original story idea by Merian C. Cooper and Edgar Wallace for the classic 1933 film, King Kong. That film inspired a few sequels over the years, as well as a 1976 remake starring Jeff Bridges, Jessica Lange and Charles Grodin. Premise: Set in the 1930s, this is the story of a group of explorers and documentary filmmakers (led by Black) who travel to the mysterious Skull Island (near Sumatra) to investigate legends of a giant gorilla named Kong. Once there, they discover that King Kong is a real creature, living in a massive jungle where creatures from prehistoric times have been protected and hidden for millions of years. As the explorers search for the great ape, their quest puts them up against both Kong and his dinosaur enemies. Ultimately, it is the attention of a beautiful human woman (Watts) that soothes Kong long enough for him to be subdued by the explorers and shipped back to New York, where his bleak future involves being put on display in front of humans... but how long can even the mightiest shackles of man hold back an ape 25 feet tall?
