New Photos From PACIFIC RIM UPRISING Tease a Jaeger Vs. Jaeger Showdown

Thanks to Total Film, we have a few new images to share with you for Pacific Rim Uprising along with their magazine cover. One interesting thing that the photo above points out is that the Jaegers won't just be fighting giant Kaiju monsters... they'll be fighting each other. Why? I have no idea. Maybe there's another group with Jaegers that want to protect and help the Kaiju. Regardless of why we will see some Jaeger vs. Jaeger action, it's going to be a lot of fun watching them fight! 

The globe-spanning conflict between otherworldly monsters of mass destruction and the human-piloted super-machines built to vanquish them was only a prelude to the all-out assault on humanity in Pacific Rim Uprising.
John Boyega (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) stars as the rebellious Jake Pentecost, a once-promising Jaeger pilot whose legendary father gave his life to secure humanity’s victory against the monstrous “Kaiju.” Jake has since abandoned his training only to become caught up in a criminal underworld. But when an even more unstoppable threat is unleashed to tear through our cities and bring the world to its knees, he is given one last chance to live up to his father’s legacy by his estranged sister, Mako Mori (Rinko Kikuchi)—who is leading a brave new generation of pilots that have grown up in the shadow of war. As they seek justice for the fallen, their only hope is to unite together in a global uprising against the forces of extinction.
Jake is joined by gifted rival pilot Lambert (The Fate of the Furious’ Scott Eastwood) and 15-year-old Jaeger hacker Amara (newcomer Cailee Spaeny), as the heroes of the PPDC become the only family he has left. Rising up to become the most powerful defense force to ever walk the earth, they will set course for a spectacular all-new adventure on a towering scale.

The film is being directed by Steven S. DeKnight (Netflix’s Daredevil, STARZ’s Spartacus) and also stars Jing Tian, Burn Gorman, Adria Arjona and Charlie Day.

 Pacific Rim: Uprising opens in theaters on March 23, 2018.
