New PACIFIC RIM Photo Featuring Idris Elba and Rinko Kikuchi
Legendary Pictures has released a new photo from Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim. It doesn't show off any of the giant robots or monsters, but it does give us a look at the characters Stacker Pentecost (Idris Elba) and Mako Mori (Rinko Kikuchi) having a discussion in what looks to be a control room. I'm so excited to see more of the awesomeness this movie has to offer!
The movie hits theaters on July 12th, 2013, and here's the synopsis:
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
