A thrilling adventure spectacle that pits human ambition against a magnificent, doomed creature, anchored by a poignant beauty-and-beast romance amid exotic danger and urban spectacle.

Adventurous filmmaker Carl Denham sets out to produce a motion picture unlike anything the world has seen before.

Denham captures the monster to be displayed on Broadway as King Kong, the eighth wonder of the world.
