Pacific Rim 2 is back on

Pacific Rim 2 is officially un-cancelled. Del Toro won't be directing, though - the man in the big chair is going to be the showrunner from season one of Daredevil.

Oh? Nice~

Unfortunate Del Toro is not directing. Is there any specific reason as to why?

I assume he's too busy.

My hopes die down a little bit.

Steven DeKnight is directing? Hells yeah. I would have preferred Del Totoro but DeKnight is a great replacement.

I hope del Toro's OK with not directing; otherwise it sounds like yet another way he's been screwed over by this film.

He said on twitter that he is thrilled to see DeKnight as the new director and is still working with him on the ideas of the film.

So there's a chance I'll be able to see the action this time? Sweet. I do hope Del Toro is involved as a producer or something, I'm just not attached to his directing.

Will they make up their minds already?

:mad:NO!!!!!!!!!

Yay!

I would rather have a new director than no Pacific Rim 2 at all. Interested to see what they do with the film.

Woot! Cautiously optimistic...

Yay!
