A fearless young actor finds her big break thanks to a fast-talking filmmaker who promises to make her the star of his next big adventure movie. The two set sail to the mysterious Skull Island where they encounter a 20-foot-tall, 2,000-pound ape known only as Kong. She finds an unexpected kindred spirit in this untameable creature while her director hatches a plan to capture Kong and display him to the New York masses.
