King Kongseems as much a part of the fabric of Hollywood as the Walk of Fame or studio lots.

First coming to the movies in 1933, the massive ape has been seen on the big screen a dozen times, as well as on television and even as the star of a Broadway musical. He's returning to cinemas (and our living rooms) on March 31 with Godzilla vs. Kong. But though there have been many iterations of Kong, none can ape the impact of the original.
