The first photos from the set of Pacific Rim: Maelstrom have leaked online.

The images features our first look at John Boyega as Idris Elba’s Jaeger-meister son. Paparazzi spotted him filming scenes in which he’s searching for something. Led by some sort of mechanic tracker, he heads through rundown, poverty-ridden streets as he passes by homeless in camping tents.

Steven S. DeKnight, the man behind Marvel and Netflix’s Daredevil, is directing Maelstrom, which also stars Scott Eastwood, Cailee Spaeny, Jing Tian, and Levi Meaden.

Pacific Rim: Maelstrom is set for release on 23 February 2018.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
