Wyatt Russell Heads Into Cold War Russia With Monsters in Shocking Spin-Off
Wyatt Russell is stepping out of the shadows of his father’s legacy and into one of the most unexpected corners of the MonsterVerse. Apple TV+’s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters has already captured audiences with its blend of epic monster action and human drama and now fans are getting a glimpse of what’s next—a spinoff that promises to take the story of young Lee Shaw into uncharted territory.
Executive producer Tory Tunnell has confirmed that the new series will follow Wyatt Russell’s Lee Shaw behind enemy lines in Cold War-era Russia. This isn’t just another monster story. According to Tunnell, it’s going to have a completely different tone, a different feel and a world viewers weren’t expecting. The show will explore Lee’s experience after being “put on ice” in 1982 and what missions bring him back into danger. It’s a combination of espionage, historical intrigue and of course, the monstrous elements that have made the Monarch universe so compelling.

What makes this spin-off particularly intriguing is the creative approach. Tunnell and showrunner Joby Harold are focused on keeping it accessible. Viewers won’t need to have followed the original Monarch
The implications for the larger MonsterVerse are significant. By branching into a period setting and leaning into espionage storytelling, Apple TV+ is expanding the universe in a way that’s both bold and strategic. It gives long-time fans new material while creating a gateway for new viewers to enter this richly built world. And with Wyatt Russell at the center, there’s a generational thread connecting Kurt Russell’s legacy with a fresh, younger perspective.
The timing is perfect, as the second season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters premieres on February 27th. This spin-off could redefine what fans expect from monster storytelling, blending action, suspense and history in ways that haven’t been explored in this franchise before.
For those following the MonsterVerse, this is a development worth keeping a close eye on. The spinoff promises surprises, intense action and a unique look at a character who’s poised to become one of the franchise’s most compelling leads. Stay with us as this story unfolds and continue watching for updates on casting, release dates and exclusive previews from Apple TV+.
