From acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro comes the sci-fi action adventure "Warner Bros. Pictures and
Legendary Pictures Pacific Rim."
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would
take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of
weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds
are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju.
On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up
former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but
seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting
apocalypse.
Del Toro's behind-the-scenes team includes Academy Award®-winning director of photography Guillermo
Navarro ("Pan's Labyrinth"), production designers Andrew Neskoromny and Carol Spier, editors Peter Amundson and
John Gilroy, and costume designer Kate Hawley. The music is composed by Ramin Djawadi. The visual effects
supervisors were John Knoll and James E. Price, and Hal Hickel was the animation supervisor.

del Toro film. Slated for release beginning July 12, 2013, the film will be released in 2D and 3D in select theaters and
