New Pacific Rim photo shows off a giant Kaiju skeleton

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Images for Guillermo del Toro’s PACIFIC RIM have been rolling in at a steady pace as Warner Bros. is anticipating the release of its giant monster flick which is set for July 12th. The latest image shows off a giant Kaiju skeleton comfortably embedded around the city. Kaiju are the giant monsters in the film which will battle against equally giant robots built by humans — the perfect recipe for a summer blockbuster.

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.

Del Toro’s latest film stars Charlie Hunnam, Charlie Day, Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi, Robert Kazinsky, Ron Perlman, Max Martini, Clifton Collins, Jr., Burn Gorman, Larry Joe Campbell, Diego Klattenhoff, and Brad William Henke.
