Although Pacific Rim 2 has been put on the production schedule and director Gilmour del Toro has confirmed his return, Before shooting this super blockbuster, Gilmour del Toro had his own little calculations. A few days ago, in an interview with foreign media, Gilmour del Toro revealed that he would shoot a small-budget black-and-white film before officially starting to shoot "Pacific Rim 2", and he hoped that British actor John Hurt would be the star of the film.

According to the plan, from August, "Pacific Rim 2" will enter the preliminary preparation stage, and the actual shooting is scheduled for the end of 2015. So during this time, Guillermo del Toro decided to shoot a small-budget black-and-white <b>film</b> in the first half of 2015.

When the time comes, people will know what kind of movie this is. "The film has not yet decided on the cast, but Guillermo del Toro already has the actor's preset in mind. In terms of actors, he hopes British actor John Hurt will join. Hutt's most recent film released in China is "Snow Country Train", in which he plays a wise man named Gilliam who lives in the bottom car. As for the film's heroine, Gilmour del Toro said he was ready to use a new person who had only starred in a few short films.

Although Guillermo del Toro has been good at making big-budget films in recent years, he also made popular low-budget films such as "Devil's Silver Claw", "Mutant DNA" and the famous "Ghost Children's House" early in his career. Therefore, his shooting of a small-budget film this time is still expected.
