This Summer’s ‘Sharknado 6’ Will Be the End of the Syfy Franchise
You’ve had a good run, tornado sharks.
Back in 2013, Syfy’s Sharknado became an unlikely hit, winning over audiences with its particular brand of over-the-top nonsense and pulling in huge numbers for the network. A sequel was ordered… and then another… and then three more. This Summer will see the premiere of Sharknado 6, which we’re being told will be the end for the series.
Via TV Line, the Anthony C. Ferrante-directed Sharknado 6, which was recently announced, will wrap things up with a time-traveling adventure starring Ian Ziering.
In the sixth installment…
“All is lost, or is it? Fin unlocks the time-traveling power of the SHARKNADOS in order to save the world and resurrect his family. In his quest, Fin fights Nazis, dinosaurs, knights, and even takes a ride on Noah’s Ark. This time, it’s not how to stop the sharknados, it’s when.”
Tara Reid, Cassie Scerbo and Vivica A. Fox also return.
Sharknado 6 will premiere on July 25, 2018.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
