Now Warner Bros.’ most-watched trailer ever, with the upload on their channel currently sitting at over 52 million views, Wingard expressed his gratitude towards excited fans in a lengthy and ebullient Instagram post.
“Watching the Godzilla Vs Kong trailer blow up across the internet has been one of the greatest experiences of my life,” said the director. “I can’t thank you all enough for making the launch such a success.”

He added making Godzilla vs. Kong was a strenuous undertaking. “When directing a big movie like this it takes years off of your life! [It’s] a long difficult process that sometimes feels like there is no end in sight!” he said. “Just look at my beard before and after GVK, I barely had any grey hairs and now I look like [f-ing] Santa [Claus]!”
All in all, the grey hairs were worth it to see the fan reactions. “BUT NOTHING has rejuvenated me more than being able to watch the excitement to the trailer online in the many fan reaction videos,” continued Wingard. “This is what [it’s] all about. I may not be able to enjoy this with ya’ll in a cinema just yet but to see and hear the excitement in these trailer reaction videos has made this long journey worthwhile.”

Below is the mashup of some of Wingard’s favorite reactions.
