Gyro on the set of Pacific Rim
Time Network News "Pacific Rim" director "Gyro" Gilmour del Toro recently revealed the plot of "Ring Tai 2" originally developed by him, in his conception, the protagonist of the sequel is Kikuchi Rinko played by Mako, not Jack played by John Boyega, and will also involve time travel and time paradox and other plots.
After the launch of "Pacific Rim" in 2013, Gyro was already preparing for "Pacific Rim 2", but the early stage of the project was delayed for a long time, and Legendary Pictures was acquired, and the preparation can be described as a twist and turn. Gyro quit the "Ring 2" crew in 2018, Steven Spielberg S. Dinet took over as director and the script was changed.

Not long ago, Gyro told The Wrap website when promoting the new film "Jade Face Love Demon" that his "Pacific Rim 2" story involves time travel and time paradoxes.
"The villain is a tech tycoon who invented things like Internet 2.0. People feel like the tycoon's invention patent was obtained overnight. It turned out that the tycoon's inventions were all given to him by the 'pioneers'—the 'pioneers' were the ones who controlled the Kaiju beast. The pioneers are thousands of years later, who want to transform the earth and want to 'harvest' the earth again to survive. The protagonist will wear that exoskeleton biochemical uniform and look like an alien, and inside the uniform is a human. This is a very interesting paradox. ...... It's really crazy that there are some elements that they made some tweaks to use in the final second part. ”

Gyro also said that Kikuchi's role as Mako will be the protagonist of Pacific Rim 2, but in 2018, he took the bento shortly after his appearance in Pacific Rim: Thunder Rises, and the protagonist was replaced by Jack played by John Boyega, "For me, the protagonist/hero of the story is Mako, who is one of the main characters in the second part." ”
