Plot

It has been ten years since The Battle of the Breach and the oceans are still, but restless. Vindicated by the victory at the Breach, the Jaeger program has evolved into the most powerful global defense force in human history. The PPDC now calls upon the best and brightest to rise up and become the next generation of heroes when the Kaiju threat returns.

About Pacific Rim: Uprising

Pacific Rim Uprising is a 2018 American mecha monster action film, the sequel to Pacific Rim (2013). The film was directed by Steven S. DeKnight, and written by DeKnight, Emily Carmichael, Kira Snyder, and T. S. Nowlin. The ensemble cast includes John Boyega, Scott Eastwood, Cailee Spaeny, Jing Tian, Adria Arjona and Zhang Jin, with Rinko Kikuchi, Charlie Day, and Burn Gorman returning from the original film. Set ten years after the events of the first film, Pacific Rim Uprising sees former pilot and Marshal Stacker Pentecost's son, Jake, returning to the Pan Pacific Defense Corps to stop a renewed Kaiju threat. Principal photography began in November 2016 in Queensland, Australia. Pacific Rim Uprising premiered in Hollywood, on March 15, 2018, and was released in the United States on March 23, by Universal Pictures. It received mixed reviews from critics and was largely deemed inferior to the original film. With a gross of only $291 million against a $150–176 million budget, it was considered a box-office disappointment. It was followed by an animated television series in 2021.
