Netflix has released the first full trailer for Pacific Rim: The Black, and it looks promising. Check it out below along with a new poster they also released.
The trailer for the new anime series based on the franchise started by Guillermo Del Toro is full of action and gives us a good introduction to the siblings Taylor and Hayley. We also get a look at some new types of Kaiju.
Pacific Rim: The Black is set in-between the events of the first Pacific Rim film and the sequel film, Pacific Rim: Uprising. The series follows a pair of siblings who find an abandoned Jaeger and defend Australia from a series of Kaiju attacks.
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 series has been in development since 2018, with Legendary Entertainment producing the series. Polygon Pictures, the animation studio behind quite a few Netflix anime projects including the Godzilla trilogy, will provide animation for Pacific Rim: The Black. Greg Johnson and Craig Kyle, who have written for several X-Men animated series including X-Men: Evolution, serve as head writers.
Netflix has such confidence in the series that it has already been given the go-ahead for a second season. Let’s all have high hopes, shall we?
