Ten years have passed since Charlie Hunnam and Rinko Kikuchi’s heroes channeled their inner Stacker Pentecost and canceled the apocalypse, but the years have not been kind to the Ppdc’s (Pan Pacific Defense Corps) Jaeger program.
Written off as a costly and unnecessary endeavor once the Kaiju have been defeated, by the time Pacific Rim: Uprising begins, those towering mechs will ostensibly be collecting dust – that is, until those otherworldly creatures begin to claw their way back from beyond the Breach. And so, the Ppdc begins to mount a defense against yet another mass invasion.
Headed up by two Jaeger pilots – played here by John Boyega (The Force Awakens) and Scott Eastwood (Suicide Squad) – the Mark VI fleet of Pacific Rim: Uprising is armed to the teeth with WMDs and other bells and whistles. Heck, one could even argue that each bipedal Jaeger is a Wmd in and of itself,...

A couple new posters have been released for director Steven S. DeKight's Pacific Rim Uprising. One of the posters offers us our first good look at Scott Eastwood in the film. As you can see, he's all suited up and ready to ride into battle piloting his Jaeger the Gypsy Avenger. He and John Boyega's characters are co-pilots in the story. We got our first poster featuring Boyega's character earlier this week. I've also included another poster for the film that you can check out below. It's more of a stylized piece that comes with the tagline, "Rise Up".
It’s been ten years since The Battle of the Breach and the oceans are still, but restless. Vindicated by the victory at the Breach, the Jaeger program has evolved into the most powerful global defense force in human history. The Ppdc now calls upon the best and brightest to...

Legendary Pictures has released the first official poster for Pacific Rim: Uprising. It features John Boyega suited up and ready for battle with the Jaeger he pilots in the film, which is called the Gipsy Avenger. The first full trailer for the film is expected to be released next week during New York Comic Con. It'll be cool to see what exactly this sequel is going to offer.
It’s been ten years since The Battle of the Breach and the oceans are still, but restless. Vindicated by the victory at the Breach, the Jaeger program has evolved into the most powerful global defense force in human history. The Ppdc now calls upon the best and brightest to rise up and become the next generation of heroes. When the Kaiju threat returns, we will be ready.

The first teaser trailer has been released for Pacific Rim: Uprising and it comes in the form of a recruitment video. It gives us our first footage of John Boyega in the movie and it looks like he's ready to kick some Kaiju ass. There was a viral site that was also launched, GoJaeger.com, which has revealed five new Jaegers that will be in the sequel! I included the photos and information on each of those Jaegers below the teaser trailer. But first, here's a little information that gets us up to speed on where the film starts off.

The Jaeger program is looking for new recruits.
As the Internet grinds to a halt in anticipation of San Diego Comic-Con, Legendary has unleashed the first teaser trailer for Pacific Rim: Uprising, the Steven S. DeKnight-directed creature feature that places John Boyega (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) in the driving seat.
For when the Kaiju stage their resurgence, the former Attack the Block actor will lead the human resistance as Jake Pentecost, son of the apocalypse-canceling Stacker (Idris Elba). That leaves Boyega with some mighty big boots to fill – both human and otherwise – if he’s to command the story in the spirit of his on-screen father, but we’re quietly confident that the rising star is ready to step up to the plate. You’ll be able to catch a fleeting glimpse of him suited up at the tail-end of Uprising‘s first teaser, which spends close to...

There's still so much that we don't know about producer Guillermo del Toro and director Steven S. Knight's Pacific Rim: Uprising. Just yesterday we got our first official photo featuring John Boyega, who is playing the son of Idris Elba's character, Stacker Pentecost. We now have a new image to share with you giving us our first look at three new Jaegers that we'll get to see in action!
The art comes from the latest issue of License! Global (Via: Comingsoon). I imagine Boyega, Scott Eastwood, and some of the other characters in the film will be piloting these bad boys, the names of which I'm sure will be revealed in due time.
We don't have any story details for this sequel, but we know that these Jaegers will battle Kaiju. There's also a chance that we'll see a hybrid of the two.

Kaiju geeks! Go behind the scenes of Pacific Rim: Uprising and see some brand new footage, too...
Tokyo Comic-Con had all the best in kaiju geekery this past weekend, which seems fair - the blighters are always smashing the city up, it's only right they get a bit of payback now and then, and a chance to cherry-pick the good stuff.

One of the delights that emerged online afterward was this brand new featurette that chronicles the making of the long-awaited (by us, at least) sequel to Guillermo del Toro's 2013 smash-'em-up Pacific Rim, this time directed by Daredevil's Steven DeKnight and starring The Force Awakens' John Boyega as Idris Elba's estranged son, Jake Pentecost.
Take a look...
Previously, Pacific Rim: Uprising finally got its first proper trailer. And here it is...
