Guillermo del Toro's Monster Flick 'Pacific Rim' Receives Another Date Change

If you are amped up to see Guillermo del Toro's upcoming monster mash-up Pacific Rim, which was originally expected to put asses in seats on May 10th 2013 - it's time to get out your white out...AGAIN!



A new release date of July 12th 2013 has been set for the film, so if you already have the old date marked with a red "X", flip your calendar two pages ahead and adjust it accordingly.

Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Charlie Day, Ron Perlman, Rinko Kikuchi, Max Martini, Rob Kazinsky, Clifton Collins, Jr., and Diego Klattenhoff star in the film.

Pacific Rim is listed as a science fiction kaiju film which is directed by del Toro and based on a screenplay by Travis Beacham. The film is set in the future where soldiers piloting giant robots battle against giant monsters who have mysteriously risen five miles beneath the ocean. The film will be an homage to the giant monster movies from Japan, known as the kaiju genre. Del Toro has said the film will be "a beautiful poem to giant monsters."
