Pacific Rim is a media franchise that consists of Kaiju-monster installments. It includes two theatrical films, Pacific Rim (2013) and Pacific Rim Uprising (2018), and an animated television series, Pacific Rim: The Black (2021–2022). The overall plot centers around a future where giant Kaiju monsters arise from an interdimensional portal at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, and the military response to their attacks. Based on an original story written by Travis Beacham, the franchise expands on his original fictional future by exploring humanity's actions for survival.
The original film was met with positive critical and financial reception.[1][2] The second film was met with mixed critical reception, though it still made a profit at the box office.[3][4] The franchise expanded with the release of an animated television series which lasted for two seasons, and released exclusively on Netflix. The show was well received by critics and its viewers.[5]
The franchise will continue with a prequel television series in development.[6]
