Unfortunately, Guillermo Del Toro will not be at the helm of the prequel.

The Pacific Rim series boasts two movies and an animated series made for Netflix.

Del Toro’s creative genius can be seen in how the montage was put together.

Further, the Kaiju War is not the only thing that the series can showcase.

There are several scenes in del Toro’s movie that thePacific RimTV show can explore.
