Prime Video Developing ‘Pacific Rim’ Prequel Series

Exciting news for Pacific Rim fans! A prequel series from Legendary Entertainment is currently in development at Prime Video. The talented Eric Heisserer, known for his work on Arrival and Shadow and Bone, is both the writer and executive producer under his Chronology banner, as part of a first look deal with Legendary. Unfortunately, plot details are being kept tightly under wraps, deep down in the ocean depths for now.

For those unfamiliar with the franchise, the original 2013 film follows the chaos unleashed after an inter-dimensional rift opens at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. The series has since expanded, including the sequel film Pacific Rim Uprising, and the anime series Pacific Rim: The Black, which had a successful two-season run on Netflix.

It’s always exciting to see beloved stories expanding and evolving, and we can’t wait to dive into this new chapter in the Pacific Rim universe. Stay tuned for more updates and details on this thrilling new project!
