Get Ready To Sink Your Teeth Into ‘The Meg 2’

The Meg (review) made waves earlier this year bringing in $527.7 million at box offices worldwide. So, it’s no surprise that the second installment is circling and getting ready to swim into production. Producer Catherine Xujun Ying and star Jason Statham have confirmed that the movie is coming. Both Statham and Bingbing Li are returning for the sequel. It’s still in the very early stages, but we’re working on it.” As for what the next movie will be about, Yung couldn’t reveal any specifics and only added, “We’re trying to keep it secret at this time.” With that being said, a giant prehistoric shark, or two, will more than likely be involved.” Ying has said. The Meg was based on Steve Alten’s 1997 novel Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror. Alten has already published seven other books in the series meaning we could see a lot more of the franchise. But let’s be honest, who doesn’t love giant sharks and

Movie Review: The Meg

Out of the big blockbuster films of 2018, one of the films I’ve most looked forward to seeing was The Meg. I’m a sucker for sharks and even have a few Megladon teeth in my collection. So, when The Meg arrived on Blu-ray this week I was psyched to finally get my hands on a copy.

Unfortunately, he had to leave a few men behind t save the life of those already on the rescue vessel. Just as the rescue sub pulls away something big hits the wrecked sub and blows it up. Blamed by his co-workers for the lost lives of the men he left behind Statham’s character Jonas trades in his life for a life of intoxication. His permanent

‘The Meg’ Sinks Its Teeth Into A New Poster And Featurette

The Meg has unleashed a massive treat for fans awaiting it’s August arrival in theaters, a new featurette that includes new footage, a behind-the-scenes look, and a brand new poster (above). From director Jon Turteltaub, based on novel series by Steve Alten, The Meg follows “A deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep-sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own
