Okay, this sounds fun. Haven't seen a western take on a MechaGodzilla-like film before.

Del Toro and Perlman working on a movie together and the movie isn't Hellboy 3?

Don't seem right.

Wait, wait, wait...

This won't feel right if the mechas aren't piloted by spirited 15-year olds! Only they can save the universe!

Well, according to the synopsis, there will be a trainee. Not sure of age range though.

On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Well the actress, Rinko Kikuchi, is 30ish but Asian women generally read young. They are probably shooting for young 20s, just out of the Academy.

Which was when she was in her mid 20s. Didn't see the movie, no idea how old she was suppose to be in it. It was a performance worthy of an Oscar nomination as I understand it.

She played a high school girl, and it was an excellent performance.
