[Trailer] The Sharks Are Back in ’47 Meters Down: The Next Chapter’
Next summer, the fear goes deeper.
The surprise box office success of Johannes Roberts’ 47 Meters Down last year, originally set to be a direct-to-video dump, has paved the way for a sequel, and it would seem that 47 Meters Down: The Next Chapter has already been filmed. Surprisingly, the first teaser trailer dropped on Collider this morning, perfectly/smartly timed to the release of The Meg.
Recently, we spoke to Roberts and he compared the sequel to The Descent.
“If I had to pitch it in a very simple way, I would describe it as The Descent underwater,” Roberts explained to us. “So it will be six or seven people trapped in the caves in Brazil, an underwater city.”
Ahead of the June 2019 release, check out the early teaser below.
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
