Another short (but action-packed) TV spot for
Guillermo del Toro‘s upcoming
Pacific Rim has arrived, and as usual – you can check it out in the rest of this report. We're definitely interested in this
sci-fi spectacle, especially after
Charlie Hunnam (who plays a former pilot in the pic) revealed that the film is filled with soul, passion, integrity and honesty. So, it's not all about giant robots & monsters…

Anyway, let us once again remind you that
Pacific Rim is set to hit theaters on July 12th, 2013, and that, beside Hunnam, also stars
Idris Elba,
Rinko Kikuchi,
Charlie Day,
Ron Perlman,
Robert Kazinsky and
Max Martini.
Guillermo del Toro wrote the script together with
Travis Beacham, and as we previously reported, the story is set in a near future where soldiers pilot giant robots (aka
the Jaegers) into battle against invading giant monsters (known as
Kaiju) who have risen from beneath the ocean.
On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes – a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee – 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.
In case you've missed our previous reports, now is your perfect moment to check out the
images,
posters and
featurettes from the whole thing.
As usual – stay tuned for more!
