Godzilla, Mothra and Rodan to battle Ghidorah in Legendary's Godzilla sequel?

AdminSpaceGodzillaApr-09-2016 7:26 AMWhat made Gareth Edwards' Godzilla enjoyable (at least for me) was the realistic approach to such an unimaginable phenomena. Their take on Godzilla as being a force of nature made me believe (to a point) that such a creature could exist. I thoroughly enjoyed Godzilla 2014 despite the lack of actual Godzilla screentime. It kept true to the 1954 original from which it was based.
Now, Godzilla 2 on the other hand is a completely different story. Already, we've been told there will be lots more Monster mayhem and screentime focusing on these Monsters. We also know the sequel will feature not one, not two, but three additional monsters, in addition to Godzilla himself. Mothra, Rodan and Ghidorah - all major players from the original Toho series will be present. My question today is - what will their relationship be?
Obviously our first instinct as G fans is to assume at some point, Godzilla, Mothra and Rodan will team up on Ghidorah, but is that "realistic"?
Keep in mind the difference of approach to the Legendary cinematic universe compared to the Toho one. Toho's was not realistic. Entertaining, but not realistic.
Legendary's Godzilla is an animal, a force of nature. When an alpha Predator sees another alpha Predator, they don't shake hands and get along... They try to eliminate the other to establish dominance and/or to avoid death themselves.
Will it be a massive free for all? Or will there be some kind of unspoken alliance between the 3 "Earth Defenders", ala Jurassic World's Rexy and Blue?
My money is on a free for all scenario, given Legendary's approach to the franchise and its monsters. I can see Ghidorah being the primary antagonist for sure, but I doubt we'll see Mothra, Rodan and Godzilla joining forces.
Your thoughts?
