History
MonsterVerse
Kong: Skull Island
Houston Brooks first theorized the Hollow Earth due to the bedrock on Skull Island being discovered to be hollow when bombs were detonated on the surface.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters
As Monarch raced to Antarctica to stop Alan Jonah from awakening King Ghidorah, Godzilla fell off their sensors. Dr. Rick Stanton theorized that he was using underwater tunnels in the Hollow Earth to swiftly travel. After the U.S. military used the Oxygen Destroyer to end a battle between Godzilla and Ghidorah near Isla de Mara, Godzilla retreated to an ancient underwater temple in the Hollow Earth to recover. Monarch tracked him there via submarine with the help of Mothra, and Dr. Ishiro Serizawa sacrificed himself to detonate a nuclear weapon, revitalizing the Titan. After Godzilla killed Ghidorah, Monarch made plans to explore the Hollow Earth, hoping to discover the origin of the Titans.
Godzilla vs. Kong
At some point an exploration was attempted to go into the Hollow Earth which went wrong and killed Nathan Lind's brother due to the change in gravity there. Lind's books on the Hollow Earth had negative feedback from critics and sold poorly. This would ultimately get the attention Apex who needed the Hollow Earth energy to power their creation Mechagodzilla so they send a team lead by Nathan Lind and give them HEAVs to travel into the Hollow Earth and have Kong guide them to it. After they airlifted Kong following Godzilla attacking their fleet and Jia convincing Kong to travel to the Earth Apex would scan the energy where Apex was able to replicate it and have it used to power up Mechagodzilla. Godzilla would use his atomic breath to burrow to where Kong is before the Ape climbs to Hong Kong to fight. After the two Titans joined forces to destroy Mechagodzilla, Kong permanently settled in the Hollow Earth, with Ilene, Jia, and Nathan monitoring him at a new Monarch outpost.
