While the movie is a sequel to the original Pacific Rim, the cast is going to look almost entirely different when compared to the original.
As it stands, the connection between John Boyega’s character and Idris Elba’s character is the only link to the original film that the new one will have.
This image not being everything it appears to be, fits nicely with the film as a whole, as we have little idea what it’s really going to look like either.
None of the leads from the first film will be back.
