The team behind the Pacific Rim sequel are using the seemingly standard drip feed method of announcing casting following an initial flurry. The latest recruit for the Jaegers vs. Kaiju follow-up? Adria Arjona.
As with most of the cast so far, we have no idea what Arjona will be doing in the film. The only confirmed character is John Boyega's, since he's playing the son of Idris Elba's deceased Stacker Pentecost.
Arjona joins Boyega, Scott Eastwood, Cailee Spaeny, Levi Meaden and Tian Jing in the film, which Steven S. DeKnight is preparing to direct. Shooting should be kicking off this November in Australia with some of the production planned for China. The movie will be with us on 23 February 2018. Arjona has the lead in Wizard Of Oz-inspired US TV series Emerald City and will be seen in movies such as The Belko Experiment and Life Of The Party.
