I play Jake Pentecost. He’s been a way in Pacific Rim one. He’s like the prodigal son that never came back. Now he’s given a chance and oppurtunity to join the PPDC and earn his right to be there. It’s not all that it seems. Obviousyly the breach was closed in Pacific Rim, but there are other ways of doing things [laughs] for these Kaiju. They are very, very intelligent. What do we do? Upgrades! Oh, yeah! Up! Grades! Some of which came from here [points to head]. So don’t worry nerds. Everything you wanted I made sure to inject in to this! It’s really cool. Some really cool stuff going down.
