Template:Tabber2Legendary Template:Infobox Monster Leviathan, also dubbed Titanus Leviathan, is a prehistoric giant aquatic daikaiju created by Legendary Pictures to appear in the MonsterVerse. Leviathan appears in Legendary's 2019 film, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, as a name appearing on a monitor, and it is briefly mentioned in Godzilla: King of the Monsters - The Official Movie Novelization.
Name
The "Leviathan" likely refers to the Biblical use, in which the Leviathan is a giant sea creature created by God, usually described as a serpentine crocodile or a whale. This creature is the counterpart to the Behemoth. Leviathan's name may also refer to the definitions of "leviathan", either a large aquatic creature or something that is very large and powerful.
History
Godzilla: King of the Monsters
Leviathan was found in Loch Ness, Scotland, by Monarch[1], and an outpost was built around it. When Ghidorah calls, Leviathan breaks free of its outpost and travels through Hollow Earth to the Indian Ocean, where it begins to hunt with the other Titans.[2] When the ORCA calls all Titans to Boston, Leviathan does not arrive in time for the battle and does not see Godzilla become the new Alpha of all Titans (except Kong).
Trivia
- Leviathan can travel in and out of Loch Ness with the use of Hollow Earth tunnels.
- Possibly coincidentally, it is believed by many Loch Ness Monster theorists that there are tunnels under Loch Ness connecting it to the sea.
