Tokusatsu fans across the world fell in love with Guiliermo Del Toro’s epic Mecha VS Kaiju cinematic entry Pacific Rim last summer. Sadly, the box office returns were less than expected, leaving the future of this innovative new universe in doubt- UNTIL NOW!

Del Toro himself has confirmed that Pacific Rim 2 will be released in 2017! In addition, a new animated series set in the Pacific Rim universe (and following up on the adventures published in comic book format) will come out to bridge the gap between the first film and the sequel.

It’s safe to say it – the King of the Monsters is back and he’s top at the box office this weekend. Reporting in at $93 million dollars domestically and an additional $103 million internationally, Godzilla 2014 is topping in at roughly $200 million dollars for its opening weekend. On top of that, news of a sequel is already in the works.

According to Deadline.com, Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures have already begun developing a sequel to what is now considered a successful reboot to the American Godzilla franchise. While movies in the “development” stage are always questionable to see the light of day, with what would appear to be a box-office hit – the $103 million dollars internationally is the largest grossing for a movie this year – many are saying a sequel is an obvious no-brainer.
