Since the Kaiju tide became a major threat to humanity in 2014, the brave men and women of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps have stood sentry against their quest for world domination.
Meet some of the war’s leading pilots:
Jake Pentecost (John Boyega)
John Boyega plays Jake Pentecost, the son of a legendary Jaeger pilot, who destroyed the monstrous “Kaiju” in a war against humanity. Unlike his father, Jake decides to abandon his pilot training for an exciting criminal lifestyle in the underworld., but when he gets caught in a bind that can put him behind bars for good, his estranged sister and military leader Mako Mori intercedes and coaxes the young pilot back into the force to help put a stop to a dangerous new threat.
Nate Lambert (Scott Eastwood)
Jake’s former best friend and co-pilot Nate, is nothing without his once partner in crime. When Jake abandoned his training, Nate developed a grudge against the pilot. Nate must now work out his grudge with Jake in order to reignite their brotherhood and take on the war.
Amara Namani (Cailee Spaeny)
At just 15 years-old, Amara is still recovering from a tragedy from the first Kaiju invasion. While living in the slums, she becomes a self-taught Jaeger engineer and pilot, creating her own Jaeger named Scrapper and eventually joining the coalition to fight for humanity.
While the pilots are the brains behind the coalition, they couldn’t do it without their weapons; the Jaegers. Jaegers are 25-story tall robots that are powered by two human pilots. They are driven by precise human movement and precise partner telepathy. Equipped with the most advanced combat technology ever created, Jaegers were created to fight back against the world’s biggest and strongest threats. Pacific Rim Uprising introduces a new class of Jaegers that
Gipsy Avenger: Gipsy Avenger is a new Jaeger that honors the heroic legacy of her namesake as the flagship leader of the original fleet (Gypsy Danger). More than just a Jaeger, she is a symbol of hope to millions.
Bracer Phoenix: An original Jaeger that can still keep up with any new robot, Bracer Phoenix shoots from the chest, with a centrifugal vortex cannon that is as spectacular as it is deadly…
Titan Redeemer: Built for brute force and armed with a seismic morningstar, Titan Redeemer is the walking wrecking ball of the new fleet.
Guardian Bravo: Designed for combat at range, Guardian Bravo wields the electric whip and brings a new sophistication to the whiplash move.

Synopsis:
The globe-spanning conflict between otherworldly monsters of mass destruction and the human-piloted super-machines built to vanquish them was only a prelude to the all-out assault on humanity in Pacific Rim Uprising.
John Boyega (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) stars as the rebellious Jake Pentecost, a once-promising Jaeger pilot whose legendary father gave his life to secure humanity’s victory against the monstrous “Kaiju.” Jake has since abandoned his training only to become caught up in a criminal underworld. But when an even more unstoppable threat is unleashed to tear through our cities and bring the world to its knees, he is given one last chance to live up to his father’s legacy by his estranged sister, Mako Mori (Rinko Kikuchi)—who is leading a brave new generation of pilots that have grown up in the shadow of war. As they seek justice for the fallen, their only hope is to unite together in a global uprising against the forces of extinction.
Jake is joined by gifted rival pilot Lambert (The Fate of the Furious’ Scott Eastwood) and 15-year-old Jaeger hacker Amara (newcomer Cailee Spaeny), as the heroes of the PPDC become the only family he has left. Rising up to become the most powerful defense force to ever walk the earth, they will set course for a spectacular all-new adventure on a towering scale.
Pacific Rim Uprising is directed by Steven S. DeKnight (Netflix’s Daredevil, STARZ’s Spartacus) and also stars Jing Tian, Burn Gorman, Adria Arjona and Charlie Day.
