It’s unclear if Pacific Rim 2 will ever actually happen, but if it does, director Guillermo Del Toro has some awesome ideas.
“If PR2 happens, that girl is getting a Jaeger,” he said.
That’s a big if, as it was recently announced that Pacific Rim 2 has been delayed indefinitely. It was originally scheduled to release in 2017, but then Legendary puled the movie from its schedule, reportedly for financial reasons.
Del Toro continues to insist the movie has merely been delayed and not cancelled, though. “As far as I’m concerned, it’s not gone,” he told EW. “We’re still on it.”
The language of this tweet is worrisome, though, as it sounds like he’s unsure the movie will happen at all. Before, it sounded like a matter of when, not if. Let’s hope Legendary’s able to follow through, because the image of Arya Stark fighting monsters while piloting a giant robot is just too awesome to pass up.
