Pacific Rim Prequel Series Moves Forward at Amazon

Amazon Prime Video has officially greenlit a live-action Pacific Rim prequel TV series, following a deal between Legendary Television and Amazon MGM Studios. The series, which has been in development since last year, will be written and executive produced by Eric Heisserer, known for his work on 'Arrival' and 'Shadow and Bone.' While specific plot details remain under wraps, it is confirmed that the show will explore events prior to Guillermo del Toro's original 2013 film. No casting announcements have been made, and a premiere date has not yet been set. Additionally, sources indicate there is still potential for new films in the Pacific Rim franchise, though nothing has been officially announced. Legendary Television expressed enthusiasm for expanding the globally popular Pacific Rim universe through this partnership.
