Pacific Rim Uprising Teaser is a Propaganda Call for Enrollment

The first teaser for Pacific Rim Uprising, the sci-fi action creature feature sequel, has been released. While it features no footage from the film, it acts as a propaganda piece similar to those commercials shown in Starship Troopers. Basically, it is inspiring audiences to rise up and join the Jaeger program. Were it reality, I have a feeling I’d be ordering a brochure or two.
Directed by Steven S. DeKnight, the film stars Boyega (Attack the Block, The Force Awakens) as the son of Idris Elba’s character in the original, Stacker Pentecost. Scott Eastwood, Jing Tian, Cailee Spaeny, Ivanna Sakhno, and Adria Arjona co-star.
Thomas Tull, Mary Parent, Jon Jashni, and Guillermo del Toro produce the action adventure film along with Boyega and Femi Oguns under their Upper Room Productions banner. Cale Boyter serves as executive producer.
Look for Pacific Rim Uprising in theaters on February 23, 2018.
