Small Kaiju… is that an oxymoron?
After two movies, the monsters vs. robots franchise Pacific Rim is getting its own animated series over at Netflix, continuing the battle between the Kaiju and the Jaegers.
It’s titled “Pacific Rim: The Black,” and the streaming service has released the full trailer today. As they announced the other day, the series premieres on March 4, 2021!
Check out the new trailer below. Here’s the plot synopsis…
“There was a time when Kaiju rose from the Pacific Rim only to encounter gigantic robots, Jaegers, built to fight them back. That time has passed. Now, Australia has been overrun by Kaiju, forcing the evacuation of an entire continent. Left behind, teenage siblings Taylor and Hayley embark on a desperate search for their missing parents, teaching themselves to pilot a battered, long-abandoned Jaeger to help in their quest and give them even the slightest hope of surviving.”
The 7 episode (30 mins each) “Pacific Rim: The Black” comes from Legendary Entertainment, and co-creators Craig Kyle (Thor: Ragnarok) and Greg Johnson (X-Men: Evolution).
The animation production studio is Polygon Pictures, known for the Netflix Original Anime Series Levius, the Ajin: Demi-Human series, and the Godzilla Netflix Anime Movie Trilogy.
