THE MEG - Official Trailer #1

Chomp on this. Jason Statham stars in #TheMeg, in cinemas August 9
Follow us:

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.
Rounding out the international main cast of "The Meg" are Rainn Wilson (TV's "The Office," "Super"), Ruby Rose ("xXx: Return of Xander Cage," TV's "Orange is the New Black"), Winston Chao ("Skiptrace," "Kabali"), Page Kennedy (TV's "Rush Hour"), Jessica McNamee ("The Vow," TV's "Sirens"), Ólafur Darri Ólafsson ("The BFG," TV's "The Missing"), Robert Taylor ("Focus," TV's "Longmire"), Sophia Shuya Cai ("Somewhere Only We Know"), Masi Oka (TV's "Hawaii Five-0," "Heroes") and New Zealander Cliff Curtis ("The Dark Horse," "Risen," TV's "Fear the Walking Dead").

Turteltaub directed the film from a screenplay by Dean Georgaris and Jon Hoeber & Erich Hoeber, based on the best-selling novel by Steve Alten. Lorenzo di Bonaventura (the "Transformers" films), Belle Avery ("Before the Devil Knows You're Dead") and Colin Wilson ("Suicide Squad," "Avatar") produced the film, with Gerald R. Molen, Wei Jang, Randy Greenberg, and Barrie Osborne serving as executive producers. Jie Chen, Ming Beaver Kwei and Chunzi Wang served as associate producers.
Turteltaub's behind-the-scenes team included Oscar-nominated director of photography Tom Stern ("Changeling," "Sully," "American Sniper," "The Hunger Games"), Oscar-winning production designer Grant Major ("The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," "X-Men- Apocalypse"), editors Steven Kemper ("Salt," "Mission: Impossible II," "Face/Off") and Kelly Matsumoto ("Fast and Furious 6"), and costume designer Amanda Neale ("Truth," "Pete's Dragon," "What We Do in the Shadows"). The music is composed by Harry Gregson-Williams.

Filming on "The Meg" was accomplished on location in China and New Zealand.

That scene with all the people in inner tubes had better turn into a demented version of Pac-man or I will be sorely disappointed.

[king_supreme]

My too biggest fears, a whale and a shark, combined. This is a great thing I really needed on my mind right now.

THE ROCK VS APE & STATHAM VS What's next HULK VS ROUSEY

[kurosagi]

[bringbackthes]

[jenniferscott]

I can not wait I wonder if they also do the Trench if you like the movie you need to read the books they are great

[nickcostigan]

Based on what im seeing, its pretty close to the book. So im kinda excited.

[spielberg]

Much better trailer than the other one.

[steviegbcool]

Jason Stathams acting is starting to become unintentionally funny

[piperkosa]

Finally making movie about the megaladon considering the fact that they are my favorite animal

[TheDustmeister]

Are we seriously gonna watch this movie and not think of the "shut up Meg" jokes from Family Guy?

[Youcannothandle_dezznots]

Icant wait for the second movie hope they add kronosaurus as the new villain

[LithmyB]

Does anyone think of subnatica? By watching this?

[jessetuominen]

It's weird to see Jason Statham in this movie 😁

[bradigansd]

The biggest mystery of this movie is why tf is there just a random kid in the ocean?

[FBI-juno]

so long as they don't try to make the shark smarter than it should be, then this will probably be a good movie.
the main focus of the shark should be its immense size and destructive existence, not its intelligence.

[killrkiddx]

I’m looking forward to this movie more then the avengers:)

[emmanuelrivero]

This movie is going to be huge in China
