All good things must come to an end and while we may not want to live in a world where no more Sharknado films will premiere on TV, it looks like the end is near for the so bad it’s good film series.
Syfy has announced that they greenlit a sixth and final film in the Sharknado franchise. The yet-to-be-titled sequel will bring back Ian Ziering, Tara Reid, Cassie Scerbo, and Vivica A. Fox. Five-time Sharknado director Anthony C. Ferrante will be back in the director’s chair for the big finale.
The Sharknado phenomenon started in 2013 and has since garnered a rabid cult fanbase on social media that ate up all of the franchise’s B-movie glory. The first movie was followed by Sharknado 2: The Second One, which was a series-best with 3.9 million viewers tuning in. This was followed by more installments with colorful titles such as Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No! and Sharknado: The 4th Awakens. In Sharknado 5: Global Swarming, we last saw Finn (Ziering) walking the Earth all by his lonesome after it has been destroyed. The sixth movie will have him traveling back in time to stop the first Sharknado that ushered in this cult franchise.
