The first trailer for Pacific Rim: Uprising made its debut at NYCC, and it's now been released online for you guys to take a look at.
The footage gives us some background on the events the followed the first film's climactic battle via Jake Pentecost's (yes, John Boyega got to keep his accent this time) voiceover, which echoes his father's rousing speech from Del Toro's original. Then, we see some pretty spectacular shots of the next gen Jaegers rushing into battle against some fierce-looking, evolved Kaiju.
If you were a fan of the Pacific Rim, chances are you'll like the look of this sequel. If not... well, it really is just more of the same.
Check it out below, and let us know what you think in the usual place.
Pacific Rim: Uprising also stars Jing Tian, Cailee Spaeny, Rinko Kikuchi, Burn Gorman, Adria Arjona, and Charlie Day, and is set to hit theaters on March 23, 2018.
