Most directors don't talk much about sequels to films that haven't been released yet... but that's not Mr del Toro. Promoting his upcoming monster vs human summer blockbuster,
Pacific Rim, del Toro says yet again that he has plans to make a sequel. del Toro believes working with everyone was a blast and he'd love to work with everyone again. The director also discusses some potential spoilers in the video below, but I'm not really sure if that'll make or break the film for you.
Pacific Rim opens in theatres July 12th in 3D and IMAX 3D.
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.
