Three years after its first release in cinemas, the sci-fi, action-packed film, "Pacific Rim" is finally in the works. Here's the latest scoop we have about its sequel, "Pacific Rim 2"
First shown in summer of 2013, the movie didn't really gain much of a success from the market. But, with some support from the fans, "Pacific Rim 2" also known as "Pacific Rim: Maelstrom," is now taking shape especially with their new production partner, Universal Pictures.
Unfortunately, as with every movie production, "Pacific Rim 2" has also hit a wall and faced its own struggles and setbacks. But, that isn't the case now as the movie is progressing and moving forward with production plans. This means, there is still time to get to know everything about the sequel of the war between man and robots in the next "Pacific Rim" film.
There has been no news about the official storyline of "Pacific Rim 2", but rumors are spreading around the online community on what could be its possible plot. In an article posted in Cinemablend, it is reported that the movie will revolve around Dr. Newton "Newt" Geiszler and Dr. Herman Gottlieb where the events take place after the "Pacific Rim." As to knowing whether Newt will be a hero or an enemy, it is still debatable. But, one thing that fans can be certain of is that is the final combat is going to be awesome. Currently, "Jurassic World's' writer, Derek Connolly is on board to help write the script of the movie.
The upcoming movie "Pacific Rim 2" is more likely to acquire a PG-13 rating from the Motion Picture Association of America. The previous film handled the same thing as most movies with action-packed scenes portraying violence against fictional creatures often do.
The release of the next installment of the movie was initially announced on Aug. 4, 2017. But, with setbacks that the movie production has faced, "Pitch Perfect 3", replaced its slot that moved "Pacific Rim 2" to a later time. Universal Pictures has currently set the date as February 23, 2018, however, changes might still take place, as production is yet to take its ground.
