Pacific Rim Movies In Order: How Netflix’s The Black Fits Into The Pacific Rim Timeline

Netflix’s Pacific Rim: The Black continues the monster franchise with an animated sequel, but this entry in the Pacific Rim timeline raises questions on how to watch the Pacific Rim movies in order. The original Pacific Rim movie directed by Guillermo del Toro kicked off the war between Kaiju and Jaegers with a story set in 2025. Next, Pacific Rim: Uprising jumped forward a decade. Three years after Pacific Rim: Uprising, the franchise was able to continue thanks to Netflix with the animated Pacific Rim: The Black. This series follows Taylor and Hayley Travis as they travel across Kaiju-infested Australia in search of their parents.
