Warner Bros. has released two new TV spots for ‘Pacific Rim Uprising‘. The first trailer showcasing the new Jaegers in the film–Gipsy Avenger, Bracer Phoenix, Saber Athena, Titan Redeemer and Guardian Bravo–along with a second that takes a look at each of their unique weapons. We’ve see a few trailers for the film now, so if you’re not sold on the movie by now these probably won’t change your mind. I was a huge fan of Guillermo del Toro’s entry in the franchise, so it will be interesting to see how Steven S. DeKnight‘s take on the franchise will pan out.
‘Pacific Rim Uprising’ stars John Boyega, Scott Eastwood, Cailee Spaeny, Jing Tian, and Adria Arjona, with Charlie Day, Burn Gorman, and Rinko Kikuchi. Here are the TV Spots, along with the official Synopsis below:

The globe-spanning conflict between otherworldly monsters of mass destruction and the human-piloted super-machines built to vanquish them was only a prelude to the all-out assault on humanity in Pacific Rim Uprising.
John Boyega (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) stars as the rebellious Jake Pentecost, a once-promising Jaeger pilot whose legendary father gave his life to secure humanity’s victory against the monstrous “Kaiju.” Jake has since abandoned his training only to become caught up in a criminal underworld. But when an even more unstoppable threat is unleashed to tear through our cities and bring the world to its knees, he is given one last chance to live up to his father’s legacy by his estranged sister, Mako Mori (Rinko Kikuchi)—who is leading a brave new generation of pilots that have grown up in the shadow of war. As they seek justice for the fallen, their only hope is to unite together in a global uprising against the forces of extinction.
Jake is joined by gifted rival pilot Lambert (The Fate of the Furious’ Scott Eastwood) and 15-year-old Jaeger hacker Amara (newcomer Cailee Spaeny), as the heroes of the PPDC become the only family he has left. Rising up to become the most powerful defense force to ever walk the earth, they will set course for a spectacular all-new adventure on a towering scale.
