While promoting the upcoming DVD and Blu-ray release of the first season of
The Strain, director Guillermo del Toro revealed that actors Charlie Day (Dr.
Newton Geiszler) and Burn Gorman (Gottlieb), will return for the sequel.
“Yes. It’s quite a different movie from the first one in
that, but I think that two of our main characters like in the first one are
Burn and Charlie. They are really, really – I mean, honestly, they are
probably the guys I have the most fun writing along with Hannibal Chau so just
from a purely selfish drive, I like writing them. I love writing for
Charlie and Burn. I mean, [Burn's] in Crimson Peak for
that reason, because I love working with him. You’re gonna get a lot of
that, but the Kaijus are very different and you’re gonna see a very different
type of the robots I think. It’s gonna be quite a different adventure.”
As for when the sequel is set, the director says:
“It’s a few years after the first one. It’s not an immediate
follow-up. It is the world having been freed of Kaiju, what happens to
the world after – what happens to the Jaeger technology once the Kaiju are not
a threat. It’s quite a jump.”
Pacific Rim 2 should start pre-production in August/September of next year
with principal photography planned to begin in November/December.
