“Monsterverse fans, I’ve now had enough confirmation (multiple sources) to just say this outright: Mothra returns in GODZILLA X KONG,” the tweet reads.

“Mothra originally did not appear in the film (though there was an easter egg tease),” a follow-up tweet reads. “An original divine kaiju called Fosphera who didn’t test well is now Mothra and audiences are said to be much happier with the reveal.”
