The final trailer for "Kong: Skull Island" has just been released and it looks like Tom Hiddleston will need to face more than just a giant ape in the highly anticipated monster flick. The "Thor: Ragnarok" star gets more screentime in the new teaser, where he trades awesome lines with John Goodman and Brie Larson. In addition to that, Hiddleston meets a terrifying new creature that John C. Reilly has dubbed the "Skull Crawlers".

There have been several TV spots, trailers and posters for "Kong: Skull Island", most of which seem to focus more on the gigantic ape who is undoubtedly the biggest star of the film. However, the final trailer puts the highlight on Tom Hiddleston and his co-stars. Fans of the "Thor: Ragnarok" actor will truly appreciate his portrayal of a reluctant bounty hunter who needs to fight an amazing array of monsters.

The final trailer for "Kong: Skull Island" opens with Tom Hiddleston enumerating the several reasons why he isn't interested in the deal John Goodman and Corey Hawkins are offering. This includes carrion flies, which appear to be about the size of a predatory bird. Nevertheless, the bounty hunter grudgingly accepts, but their helicopters are immediately met by what Toby Kebbel calls "a monkey".

There are amazing new footages from "Kong: Skull Island" including a shot from the point of view of soldiers inside an unfortunate helicopter that sees trees, then fur then the horrifying jaws of the giant ape. One of the most memorable scenes features John C. Reilly revealing the name of a terrifying monster he calls "the Skull Crawlers." When Tom Hiddleston asked why they are called that, Reilly responds that it's just what he calls them and he is trying to scare Hiddleston and Brie Larson.

The previous teasers for "Kong: Skull Island" have all been pretty exciting. However, the final trailer ups the ante with plenty of humor, monsters and a fitting soundtrack, which is "We've Got to Get Out of This Place" by The Animals (via io9). Find out if Tom Hiddleston survives in the "King Kong" prequel, which premieres on March 10.
