  A remake of one of the greatest adventure films of all time, King Kong is director Peter Jackson's bold new cinematic vision. The screenplay by Jackson, Fran Walsh and Phillipa Boyens is based on the original story by Merian C. Cooper and Edgar Wallace, which became the classic 1933 RKO Pictures film. Entrepreneur, adventurer and filmmaker Carl Denham - a charismatic man with a natural sense of showmanship and an appetite for greatness - is struggling to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. When he discovers the existence of a mysterious, uncharted island he believes it may hold the key to the fame and fortune he so desperately seeks. With out-of-work vaudeville actress Ann Darrow and playwright Jack Driscoll, Denham leads an expedition to this exotic place, where they discover a terrifying land that time forgot, lorded over by one of the most extraordinary creatures ever to walk to earth...
