Along with shots of Lambert , Jake , and fresh pilot / cyberpunk Amara , the film ’s four new Jaegers get the spotlight in these trope . Front and marrow is Gipsy Avenger , an upgraded adaptation of Gipsy Danger fromPacific Rim . speak withEWabout the young film , Boyega blend into some details regarding the Jaeger he and Lambert will be piloting :
“ She is still a two - man Jaeger and has new weapons and technology . The new Gipsy has LCD screens and holographical imagery of what is going outside . Her gravity sling has improved . pilot are no longer operate into robot by feet . It has a scanning system that makes the impulsion easy to treat . Gipsy Avenger is impregnable and strong to operate . ”
Along with Gipsy Avenger , the young jaeger will let in : Saber Athena ( the orangish - chickenhearted one with the brand ) , an agile Jaeger who requires two pilot skilled in soldierlike art and handle two blade ; Guardian Bravo ( the red-faced mech ) , a thickset and strong Jaeger equipped with electric whips ; and Bracer Phoenix ( the big one with the mace ) , who in reality operates with three pilots , with the extra one manning the chest missile and heavy weapon the Jaeger possess . AndUprisingwon’t just feature bigger and badder jaeger , as there will be new Kaiju threats as well . Per Boyega :
“ The Kaiju have find a new style . They are way more thinking than we imagine they were . The colossus you go out in the first movie were the test ladder , to see how the satellite would hold up up . The breach we thought was closed is not their only way into our world . Their plans are more specific . Jake lead the team in endeavor to build up a newfangled defence against that . ”
Joining Jake will be his mate in crime Amara . A hacker who cobbles together jaeger from redundant percentage , she and Jake are living in the poor coastal surface area harvest tech and sell it on the black market . finally , they ’ll get in bother so deeply that Jake ’s sis Mako will extend them a selection : join the Jaeger programme or else . For Jake , that decision will be fraught with baggage :
“ Jake is the prodigal son . He is a young cat who was on the leaflet of greatness in his former day when he was coach to be a Jaeger pilot , but he always had a turbulent human relationship with Stacker . I ’m the son he did n’t really talk about in the first film … the mathematical product of Stacker ’s first making love . ”
