The first poster for Pacific Rim: Uprising has been revealed, featuring John Boyega's Jake Pentecost.
Universal Pictures has released the poster ahead of the movie's heavily anticipated panel at next week's New York Comic Con. IGN will be there on October 6 at 12 PM ET to cover any further reveals.
John Boyega is the main focus of the poster, his character Jake Pentecost taking the starring role in the sequel. Jake is the son of Idris Elba's Stacker Pentecost from the first movie.
It seems that just like his father, Jake knows his way around a Jaeger. The towering mech behind him is Gypsy Avenger, an upgraded version of Gypsy Danger, the Jaeger piloted by Charlie Hunnam's Raleigh Beckett in Pacific Rim.
Pacific Rim 2 is being helmed by Daredevil Season 1 alum Steven S. DeKnight and will take place 10 years after the first movie.
The Jaeger program has expanded into a global defense force trapped in a constant battle with the Kaiju. A new generation of heroes must rise to defeat the monstrous threat.
The movie also stars newcomers Scott Eastwood, Jing Tian and Cailee Spaeny, with Charlie Day and Burn Gorman reprising their roles as Dr Newt Geiszler and Dr Hermann Gottlieb, respectively.
Boyega recently revealed in an interview with IGN that fans can expect Jaeger Upgrades and a whole new approach to fighting Kaiju in the sequel.
