This summer, magic awaits under the sea. But rather than the enchanting vocals of Ariel, we will instead hear the terrified screams of The Meg’s latest victims in the highly anticipated sci-fi action outing, Meg 2: The Trench. The latest TV spot for Meg 2: The Trench takes aim at The Little Mermaid, drawing an amusing comparison between the two and thus making Jason Statham the latest Disney princess. Check out the new TV spot for Meg 2: The Trench below courtesy of The Meg 2 Twitter account…
They’re back for seconds in Meg 2: The Trench, a literally larger-than-life thrill ride that supersizes the 2018 blockbuster and takes the action to higher heights and even greater depths with multiple massive Megs and oh so much more. Dive into uncharted waters once again with action movie star Jason Statham and global action icon Wu Jing as they lead a daring research team on an exploratory dive into the deepest depths of the ocean.
Their voyage spirals into chaos when a malevolent mining operation threatens their mission and forces them into a high-stakes battle for survival. Pitted against colossal Megs and relentless environmental plunderers, our heroes must outrun, outsmart, and outswim their merciless predators in a pulse-pounding race against time.
Directed by Ben Wheatley (In the Earth, Free Fire), from a screenplay by Jon Hoeber & Erich Hoeber (The Meg, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) and Dean Georgaris (The Meg, Lara Croft: Toom Raider – The Cradle of Life), and based on the novel The Trench by Steve Alten, Statham and Jing lead an ensemble cast that also includes Sophia Cai (The Meg), Page Kennedy (The Meg), Sergio Peris-Mencheta (Rambo: Last Blood), Skyler Samuels (The Gifted), and Cliff Curtis (Avatar: The Way of Water).
Meg 2: The Trench Promises Insanely Large-Scale Action
Unlike its fellow underwater tale The Little Mermaid, which is likely to be a child-friendly, romantic affair (unless of course Disney has some major surprises in store), Meg 2: The Trench director Ben Wheatley has promised an epic action extravaganza. “But it’s an opportunity to do action on such an insanely large scale, that it’s just unbelievable,” the filmmaker said of the sequel. “From doing Free Fire, which was, I thought, was all my Christmases came at once in terms of action, this is just unbelievable. And just doing the storyboards for it, just thinking and going, ‘Oh,’ it’s just … I feel a heavy responsibility for it, to make sure that it kind of delivers on all the, to all the big shark fans out there.”
Meg 2: The Trench is scheduled to be released in the United States on August 4, 2023, by Warner Bros. Pictures.
As for The Little Mermaid, and for that crossover of fans who wish to see both Meg 2: The Trench and The Little Mermaid in theaters, the Disney live action remake will retell the beloved story of Ariel (Halle Bailey), a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. Falling for the dashing Prince Eric, Ariel makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, and is given the chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life in jeopardy. The Little Mermaid is scheduled to be released theatrically in the United States on May 26, 2023.
