Godzilla will return in upcoming Apple TV+ series “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” from Legendary Television, a small screen expansion on the “MonsterVerse“ that’ll center on Godzilla and other Titans. To celebrate Godzilla Day, you can now listen to the opening title theme by Leopold Ross (“Black Mirror,” Death Note) now!
Milan Records announced today the November 17 release of “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” (Apple TV+ Original Series Soundtrack) featuring music by composer Leopold Ross. Available to preorder now, the album features original score music written by Ross for the upcoming Apple Original Series based on Legendary’s Monsterverse, an epic entertainment universe of interconnected stories featuring iconic characters like Godzilla, King Kong, the Titans and more.
Making its debut today in celebration of Godzilla Day is the first offering from the soundtrack, the series’ opening title theme – listen to “Main Titles” HERE.
Of the soundtrack, Ross said, “Contrary to its title, Monarch: Legacy Of Monsters unveils a human narrative at its core, delving into the essence of familial bonds. This underlying concept paved the way for a rich spectrum of emotions to be articulated in the score. The opportunity to pair heart-rending familial turmoil with the spectacle of titan battles, and the unique prospect of crafting a theme for the indomitable screen legend, Godzilla, was a dream for a composer. I was honored to become a part of the legacy.”
As for the OST, the track listing is:
- Main Titles
- Depth Charge
- Legacy
- Hostile Takeover
- Family Business
- Colonel Shaw
- Separate Lives
- Not In Trouble
- Love and Titans
- Critters
- Lost Time

The highly anticipated sci-fi drama series will include 10-episodes. In the series…
“Following the thunderous battle between Godzilla and the Titans that leveled San Francisco and the shocking revelation that monsters are real, ‘Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ tracks two siblings following in their father’s footsteps to uncover their family’s connection to the secretive organization known as Monarch.
“Clues lead them into the world of monsters and ultimately down the rabbit hole to Army officer Lee Shaw (played by Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell), taking place in the 1950s and half a century later where Monarch is threatened by what Shaw knows.
“The dramatic saga – spanning three generations – reveals buried secrets and the ways that epic, earth-shattering events can reverberate through our lives.”
Anna Sawai, Kiersey Clemons, Ren Watabe, Mari Yamamoto, Anders Holm, Joe Tippett and Elisa Lasowski star alongside Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell.
“Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” is co-developed by Chris Black (“Severance,” “Star Trek: Enterprise,” “Outcast,”) and Matt Fraction (“Hawkeye”). Matt Shakman (“Wandavision”) directs the first two episodes. The project is produced by Legendary Television and Toho Co. Ltd.
“Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” makes its global debut on Apple TV+ with the first two episodes on Friday, November 17, followed by new episodes weekly every Friday through January 12.
