Guillermo Del Toro Announces Pacific Rim 2 and Animated Series

pacific-rim-2-announced

I am extremely happy about this. Guillermo Del Toro has finally announced a sequel to Pacific Rim, as well as an animated series to further this universe he created.

The characters I love will return. Raleigh, Mako, Newt, Gottlieb and who knows, maybe even Hannibal Chau – but we are taking them into a fresh territory that will display amazing sights and battles. The first film set the stage and now we’re ready to have a blast.

That is what Del Toro told Buzzfeed, and the video below is the official announcement of the sequel, the continuation of the Pacific Rim: Tales from Year One Graphic novel series, and of course, the animated series. The official date for Pacific Rim 2 is set on April 7th, 2017, so still a ways away, but at least it was greenlit given that it didn’t do as well as they would have hoped in the box office. People went to see Grown ups 2 instead, and they are hopefully regretting it. Let me know your thoughts about this news.
