Steven DeKnight, creator of the excellent Spartacus TV series, replaces del Toro in the director's chair. Between his work on Spartacus, the first season of Daredevil and Angel, I'm not too worried about DeKnight being able to pull off the film, even though it's his first feature. Based on the trailer, it looks like there's plenty of giant robot mayhem, and perhaps even a chance we'll see more of the monster-ravaged world.
