Age of The Nerd
Do you like Jason Statham? Do you like giant sharks? Do you like Jason Statham and giant sharks? Well Warner Brothers has your fix. The first full trailer for The Meg is here, and it… actually looks like a lot of fun.
The Meg is directed by Jon Turteltaub (National Treasure and The Sorcerer’s Apprentice). The trailer looks like it’s the exact tone needed to make the official synopsis make sense in your head. Rainn Wilson seems to be perfectly sprinkled in throughout the film for just the right amount of Rainn.
Here’s the trailer you nerds:
[su_youtube url=”https://youtu.be/bsLk0NPRFAc”]Statham stars alongside Li Bing-Bing, Sophia Shuya Cai, Cliff Curtis, Rainn Wilson, Ruby Rose,Winston Chao, Masi Oka , Ólafur Darris Ólafsson, Page Kennedy, and Jessica McNamee.
Here’s the official synopsis:
In the film, 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 (Jason 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 life to save everyone trapped below…bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.
The Meg opens in theaters August 10.
