The highly underrated Guillermo del Toro film Pacific Rim didn’t really manage to turn a lot of heads (or dollars) when it hit theaters in 2013 but some how, some way, there’s going to be a sequel. This is great news because I am a fan of anything GdT, even the misguided Mimic.
The fine folks at Birth.Movies.Death are reporting that Pacific Rim 2 will start shooting in November after the whirlwind of del Toro’s Crimson Peak dies down. They also have some other news there of the films possible title which is Pacific Rim 2: Maelstrom.Bummer, I was hoping it might be Pacific Rim 2: Still Rimming. (Sorry, these jokes write themselves!)
All joking aside, if you haven’t given Pacific Rim a chance, I suggest you do!
