Hopefully he's actually built a working Jaeger.
In yet another installment of "let's feel really old", Guillermo Del Toro has announced "fun" plans to mark the tenth anniversary of his sci-fi action blockbuster Pacific Rim, which was first released in 2013. The film starred Charlie Hunnam, Rinko Kikuchi, Idris Elba and Ron Perlman.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Although Pacific Rim faced underwhelming ticket sales in its domestic box office run, it managed to strike a chord with audiences worldwide, raking in a remarkable $411 million globally back in 2013. This triumph propelled the creation of a sequel initially helmed by director Del Toro, only to undergo a transformation into Pacific Rim: Uprising under the direction of Steven S. DeKnight.
Earlier this year, Del Toro had teased via a tweet that he was in talks with Legendary Pictures to re-release the movie for a special weekend showcase in IMAX 3D in Los Angeles. The film has developed something of a cult following in the wake of its release over the years, and a re-release to allow audiences old and new to see the movie on a big screen would be the ideal way to celebrate its legacy.
These Jaegers are controlled by two skilled pilots who synchronize their minds to operate the massive fighters. As the conflict between humans and Kaijus intensifies, we follow the journey of Raleigh Becket, a former Jaeger pilot, as he teams up with Mako Mori, a rookie pilot, under the guidance of Marshal Stacker Pentecost. Together, they battle against the relentless Kaijus, with the goal of closing the portal and ensuring humanity's survival.
