Behemoth is a Titan who first appeared in the 2019 Legendary Pictures Godzilla film, Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

Name

Behemoth is named after a beast mentioned in the Bible (בהמות Behemot), which is interpreted often as either referring to a mythical creature or a large animal such as an elephant or rhinoceros.

Design

Behemoth is a mammalian creature resembling a gigantic sloth. He knuckle-walks like an ape using his long and muscular forelimbs which are larger than his hind legs. Behemoth's most notable trait are his colossal mammoth-like tusks which jut downward from his cheeks. Behemoth is covered in light brown fur, and appears to have greenish vines or algae growing on his otherwise gray tusks. Behemoth possesses a row of bumpy triangular spikes running along his back. Behemoth is very tall and appears to nearly match Godzilla himself in physical stature.

Origins

Behemoth was discovered by Monarch in Brazil, and an outpost was constructed around him. Other details about the creature's origins are unclear.

History

MonsterVerse

Godzilla: King of the Monsters

Behemoth was awakened from his slumber in Brazil by King Ghidorah's call, which also awakened many other Titans around the world. Like the other Titans, Behemoth rampaged through populated areas. Eventually, he made his way to Boston along with Methuselah, Scylla, and the six-legged MUTO. There, they found the alpha they were following, Ghidorah, slain at the hands of Godzilla. Rodan approached Godzilla to challenge him, but was intimidated by his gaze and ultimately submitted. The other Titans all followed suit, each "bowing" in their own way to the new King of the Monsters. News outlets reported afterward that Behemoth's trail of destruction had begun to restore clear-cut parts of the Amazon rainforest.

Filmography

Books

Godzilla: King of the Monsters - The Official Movie Novelization

Behemoth is slightly more prominently featured in the novelization than the film itself. One of the researchers at his outpost, believing he is "the most interesting Titan," sets Behemoth free herself before Monarch can preemptively destroy him, and is killed in Behemoth's escape.
