 WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - New York will host the world premiere of Peter Jackson's mammoth update of "King Kong" in early December.
The premiere will be held ahead of the movie's Dec. 14 release, Universal Pictures Vice Chairman Marc Shmuger said Wednesday. He was in Wellington for meetings with Jackson.
The original 1933 movie starring Fay Wray featured New York's Empire State Building, the skyscraper that massive gorilla King Kong scaled while holding tight to Wray.
