From Ron Perlman's twitter, it sounds like he won't be in Pacific Rim 2.

From Ron Perlman's twitter, it sounds like he won't be in Pacific Rim 2. 

Maybe he's busy working on Hellboy 3? 

I at least hope Charlie Day will be back. He was great.

I did some searching and I couldn't find the tweet. He may have deleted it. So maybe it was a bit premature.

No, that's what the retractable arms word is for.

Comic-Con recruitment video:

And a new viral website, http://www.gojaeger.com , with some new blurb:

"2035 - THE JAEGER UPRISING
It's been ten years since The Battle of the Breach and the oceans are still, but restless. Vindicated by the victory at the Breach, the Jaeger program has evolved into the most powerful global defense force in human history. The PPDC now calls upon the best and brightest to rise up and become the next generation of heroes. When the Kaiju threat returns, we will be ready."

And a rundown on the new Jaegars:

Spoiler

"GIPSY AVENGER
Gipsy Avenger honors the heroic legacy of her namesake as the flagship leader of the Mark VI fleet. More than just a Jaeger, she is a symbol of hope to millions."

Spoiler

"BRACER PHOENIX
A Mark V brute that can still run with the VI's, Bracer Phoenix shoots from the chest, with a centrifugal vortex cannon that is as spectacular as it is deadly."

Spoiler

"SABER ATHENA
The sleekest and most elegant Jaeger ever created, Saber Athena is the fastest in the fleet, wielding twin blades in hyper-acrobatic combat."

Spoiler

"TITAN REDEEMER
Built for brute force and armed with a seismic morningstar, Titan Redeemer is the walking wrecking ball of the new fleet."

Spoiler

"GUARDIAN BRAVO
Designed for combat at range, Guardian Bravo wields the Elec-16 Arc Whip: a proto-metallic successor to the chainsword, and brings a new sophistication to the chainsword's whiplash move."

I wish they had expanded on the interesting idea of the three armed Chinese robot. Have some that wren't strictly humanoid.

Minor quibble, though. I am REALLY looking forward to the sequel.
