As reported by TVLine, the new series forms part of the legendary Monsterverse franchise, which includes major box office hits like 2014’s Godzilla and 2017’s Kong: Skull Island. The plot unfolds in the aftermath of the devastating battle between Godzilla and the Titans that reduced San Francisco to rubble. In this awe-inspiring world, where "monsters are real," the storyline takes a deeper dive, focusing on a family's quest to unearth its hidden secrets and connection to the clandestine organization known as Monarch.

Leading the line-up is Anna Sawai from Pachinko, who plays Cate, a former schoolteacher and G-Day survivor who stumbles upon a family secret while in Japan. Accompanying Sawai is Kiersey Clemons from Transparent as May, an American ex-pat sporting a roguish exterior that shields both herself and those around her.

The cast is rounded off with Joe Tippett as Tim, an office drone yearning for secret agent thrills; Elisa Lasowski as Duvall, a supremely confident operative; and newcomer Ren Watabe as Kentaro, a young man embarking on a quest to uncover the truth about his enigmatic father.
