Lots of people like to use Comic-Con to announce and reveal things, however it’s a bit more problematic for a movie that hasn’t even started shooting next. However as part of the Legendary Pictures panel, Guillermo del Toro took the opportunity to reveal the Uniform logo from his upcoming Sci-Fi thriller, Pacific Rim, which has now been uploaded to the Legendary website.
It’s not much, but more than we’d normally get for a movie that won’t hit cinemas until 2013. The movie stars Charlie Hunnam, Charlie Day, Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi and is set in a future in which malevolent creatures threaten the earth, the planet must band together and use highly advanced technology to eradicate the growing menace. That apparently means building giant robots to battle the baddies. Del Toro himself put in more bluntly during the panel, saying it involved giant fucking robots versus giant fucking monsters.
The panel also revealed some concept art for the movie, but decent versions of that haven’t been made available yet. Hopefully they will be soon though!
