After a LOT of starts and stops Pacific Rim 2 is nearly upon us. Well, it's out next February, which feels quite soon considering we've been waiting years for a glimpse at the sequel. And yes, today's SDCC teaser might not boast any footage from the flick but it's the perfect treat to tide us over until the first full-length trailer does eventually drop.
Less a teaser and more a recruitment video for Jaeger pilots - the giant robots from the first movie - the clip shows off an updated version of the Gipsy Avenger Jaeger. Is this the same one that's been renovated, or a brand new one? Considering there's a bunch of new Jaeger models recently revealed on the SDCC floor, it's likely the latter.
The best moment is saved for the end when we get a proper good look at John Boyega decked out in his mecha-suit. Who could refuse his offer?
You can find out more over on the new viral site at GoJaeger.com, which confirms that the sequel takes place ten years after the first movie.
