At least the ball's starting to roll on that one...
Last we heard about Pacific Rim 2 was back in March of this year, following Pacific Rim's massive appeal with both western and eastern movie goers. Legendary's Thomas Tull had mentioned their enthusiasm towards continuing on the new franchise with a sequel. Now, we know that the script for Pacific Rim 2 is currently being written by Zak Penn (writer of X-Men: The Last Stand & The Incredible Hulk).
Pacific Rim director Guillermo del Toro recently sat down with Buzz Feed and discussed his plans for Pacific Rim 2. During the interview Del Toro revealed that Raleigh Becket (Charlie Hunnam) and Mako Mori (Rinko Kikuchi) will return in the sequel, and that the story will follow on from Pacific Rim, and will not be a prequel, as some fans have speculated in the past.
