Japanese entertainment news website Cinema Today began streaming a video for the Pacific Rim Uprising sequel film on Monday.
John Boyega (Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ Finn) is playing the lead role in the film as the son of Idris Elba’s Stacker Pentecost character from the first Pacific Rim film.
Suicide Squad actor Scott Eastwood, The Great Wall actress Jing Tian, The Belko Experiment’s Adria Arjona, and Japanese actor Mackenyu are also cast in the film.
Guillermo del Toro directed the first Pacific Rim film, but told film news website Collider that he is not directing the second film because the timing ended up conflicting with his The Shape of Water film.
