First official trailer and a new image for Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Pacific Rim’

The first trailer for director Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim was released on Wednesday.

Collider describes the film: The story finds humans towards the end of a losing battle against giant monsters called “Kaiju.”  In order to combat the creatures, humans have developed their own giant human-controlled robots called “Jaegers.”  

The film stars Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Charlie Day, Rinko KikuchiMax MartiniRob KazinskyClifton Collins Jr., and Diego Klattenhoff

“Pacific Rim” opens in 3D on July 12th, 2013.

 

 

 

Here’s the synopsis for Pacific Rim:

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.
