It's game time once again for Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt Russell, as the father-son duo will pair up on the small screen once again for a new season of their hit show.
Apple TV+'s series Monarch: Legacy of Monsters from Legendary Entertainment has officially been renewed for a second season. What's more, it was announced that the show will also be producing multiple spin-offs.
In the series, Kurt, 73, and Wyatt, 37, play Army officer Lee Shaw at different stages of his life, so while they don't share any scenes together, they do get to embody the exact same character.

"We couldn't be more excited for viewers to not only have the chance to experience even more thrills in season two, but to embark on epic, new journeys in the franchise, as we expand Legendary's Monsterverse."

Wyatt is the youngest of Kurt and Goldie Hawn's brood, with Kurt acting as a stepfather to the latter's children Oliver and Kate Hudson, while Goldie is a stepmom to Kurt's son Boston Russell. Through their children, Kurt and Goldie are also grandparents of eight, thanks to Oliver's three children, Kate's three children, and Wyatt's two. More on the A-list family below...
The pair made an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers in January, talking about the unique perspective of starring together in a show while sharing zero scenes. As it turns out, they did shoot one scene together, but it was never used.
"We shot one, but it wasn't used," Kurt explained, with Seth in return joking: "No chemistry? 'They just don't seem like they like each other!'" Wyatt explained that the decision to hire them both as the same person in a different time of his life was something Monarch's casting director brought to their agent.

"We'd had the opportunity to play a father and son before," Kurt added, saying that until Monarch, "nothing really struck our fancy."
"In our family, a lot of us are in the same business, and we just kind of go down our own paths. But yet, I think everybody in the family, we'd all like to work with each other at some time or another."
