If any film premise demands to be seen on the biggest screen possible, it’s giant robots punching giant monsters. If you’re venturing out to a super-sized IMAX screen for Steven S. DeKnight’s rock-‘em-sock-‘em sequel Pacific Rim Uprising, keep an eye out for a set of stunning exclusive posters which will be seen at the large-format cinemas.

We’ve got a sneak peek at the designs and, as with everything in the Pacific Rim universe, they’re bright, bold and colourful. Each one shows off a new Jaeger, the gigantic mechs built by humanity to fight off the Kaiju threat. First up is Bracer Phoenix sporting its centrifugal vortex cannon.

Next is Guardian Bravo, wielding the Elec-16 Arc Whip.

Lastly is a dramatic, Japanese-inspired illustration of Gipsy Avenger, an updated version of Pacific Rim’s central Jaeger Gipsy Danger.

The film follows on 10 years after Guillermo Del Toro’s original. With a new set of Kaiju attacks un-cancelling the apocalypse, it’s up to Jake Pentecost — John Boyega playing the son of Idris Elba’s Stacker Pentecost — and a new generation of Jaeger pilots to fight for humanity's survival. Pacific Rim Uprising will hit cinemas on 23 March.
