Watch the trailer for Monarch: Legacy of Monsters
Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt Russell have been working on a new Hollywood project together, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.
The father-son duo do not only play the same character in their new series, they even share a scene together.
Apple TV+ released a new clip from the hit series that saw 72-year-old Kurt’s character Lee Shaw watching video footage taken from decades prior.
In the show, Kurt’s son Wyatt, 37, plays a younger version of Lee, an Army officer.
The series jumps between time periods as it peels back the mysteries surrounding Monarch – the shadowy organization at the centre of the recent Godzilla and King Kong movies.
In the clip, taken from the show’s fifth episode titled: The Way Out, both Kurt and Wyatt are seen onscreen together for the first time in the series.
Lee, who was in handcuffs and being held in Monarch’s custody, was shown old footage of Wyatt’s likeness to the older version of his character, who is his real-life father.
The dual role sees Kurt, who welcomed Wyatt in 1986 with his partner Goldie Hawn, as an older Lee reflecting on his involvement with Monarch in the 1950s.
The series follows the story of how his children then begin “following in their father’s footsteps to uncover their family’s connection to the secretive organization,” the official synopsis for the series teases.
