One of the least antiquated films of the summer has released its newest international trailer. The latest trailer for the Jason Statham film, The Meg has been released. The film is the latest in one of the most popular genres in film over the past 40 plus years, the shark genre. The premise of the film is as basic for a shark film as it gets.
With its crew trapped inside as the submersible lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific, expert deep-sea rescue diver Taylor is recruited by visionary Chinese oceanographer Dr. Minway Zhang to save the crew — and the ocean itself — from the unstoppable over-sized shark. Taylor, who encountered the terrifying creature years before, will team with Suyin and must confront his fears to save everyone trapped below — bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.
The Meg will be released this summer.
