‘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

Rainn Wilson Boards Giant Shark Film Meg

Jon Turteltaub’s adaption of Steve Alten’s giant shark film ‘Meg’ has added another star to the cast. Deadline reports Rainn Wilson (The Office, Backstorm) has boarded the film that features an already impressive cast. ‘Meg’ centers on a Megalodon reeking havoc on present day China. Wilson will play the role of tech billionaire Jack Morris. Morris funds an underwater observation program that unwittingly unleashes a 70-foot, 40-ton Carcharodon Megalodon, the prehistoric relative of Great White sharks. Action star Jason Statham will play a former Navy Captain and expert deep-sea diver. Statham’s character is recruited for a likely suicide mission – even though he faced the predator years before and was forced him to abort his mission and abandon half his crew. We reported earlier this month that ‘Orange is the New Black’ actress Ruby rose has also boarded the film. Rose will play “a kick-ass engineering genius and member of the marine research team.” Bingbing Fan (Iron Man 3) and
