The upcoming series adds to the Monsterverse universe and tells the story of Colonel Lee Shaw – the character Wyatt Russell portrays – before the events of ‘Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.’ Russell will return as Shaw in a story set in 1984, where Shaw undertakes a dangerous secret mission. His goal? To prevent the Soviets from unleashing a massive new Titan that could devastate the U.S. and change the course of the Cold War.

Joby Harold, the Emmy-nominated writer and producer, will be the showrunner for the upcoming Young Lee Shaw series. Apple TV+ also revealed that Harold will be in charge of the entire Monsterverse franchise on the platform, including both new and established Titans.
