A couple of new photos, featured in the gallery below, showcase the first looks at an upgraded Gipsy Danger suit as well as two others. These three gigantic mechs will be responsible for saving the world when Pacific Rim: Uprising hits theaters and unleashes Kaiju monsters on humanity, once again.
This time around, Scott Eastwood appears to be piloting the Gipsy Danger mech rather than Charlie Hunnam, as photos of Eastwood in costume as a Jaeger pilot surfaced online earlier this week.
In Pacific Rim, long ago, legions of monstrous creatures called Kaiju arose from the sea, bringing with them all-consuming war. To fight the Kaiju, mankind developed giant robots called Jaegers, designed to be piloted by two humans locked together in a neural bridge. However, even the Jaegers are not enough to defeat the Kaiju, and humanity is on the verge of defeat. Mankind’s last hope now lies with a washed-up ex-pilot (Charlie Hunnam), an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi) and an old, obsolete Jaeger.
Pacific Rim: Uprising is directed by Steven S. DeKnight (Marvel’s Daredevil) and written by DeKnight, Emily Carmichael, Kira Snyder, and T.S. Nowlin from a story by Guillermo del Toro.
