Norwegian director Tommy Wirkola (Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, Dead Snow, Violent Night) is back with Thrash, a Netflix shark attack movie swimming our way next month.
Thrash will be streaming on Netflix April 10. Check out the poster below.
In Thrash, “When a Category 5 hurricane decimates a coastal town, the storm surge brings devastation, chaos…and something far more frightening: hungry sharks.”
Wirkola said, “I became obsessed with sharks after Jaws—and Jaws 2, which is an underrated movie. I spent a lot of my childhood obsessing over sharks and whatever movie was made about that subject. Fast forward to a world going off its rails when it comes to global warming and flash floods happening everywhere, and it dawned on me that this could be a great setting-off point for a movie, combining the idea of a disaster-movie with a shark-thriller.”
Producer Adam McKay adds, “More and more, you’re hearing marine biologists acknowledge that climate is changing where these sharks go. It’s changing how they behave. So, in as much as this is an edge-of-your-seat popcorn film, the science behind it is not implausible.”
