There Is Only Room For One Lady In King Kong’s Heart!

Sure, the ‘King Kong‘ franchise is known for the titular giant ape but there’s a few other trademarks in his films. Every incarnation features a women, played by a great actress, who somehow becomes the center of Kong’s world.

It all starts in 1933 with Fay Wray as Ann Darrow, the girl who King Kong took to the top of the Empire State building became an infamous role. Jessica Lange played a similar role named Dwan in the 1976 remake. Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake brought Ann Darrow back but this time it was played by Naomi Watts. This brings us to 2017 where Brie Larson will be taking on a similar role named Mason Weaver in ‘Kong: Skull Island‘.

Each of these women play a major part in Kong’s life but who means the most?

Let me know if you agree with my list in the comments!

4. Brie Larson

Brie Larson is the new girl on the block but she still packs a punch. The odd thing, she’s one women that Kong isn’t completely obsessed with. Sadly, it makes Larson’s character more forgettable. Her acting is fine but she doesn’t have impact of the ladies before her. Maybe, she’ll be back for ‘Kong: Skull Island‘ sequel.
