First look at Jason Statham battling a giant shark in the summer's biggest screen duel.
Director Jon Turteltaub's man vs nature thriller The Meg stars Jason Statham as a rescue diver tasking with retrieving the crew of a submersible craft trapped on the ocean floor. One big obstacle stands in his way - a 75' long Megalodon shark, with which he shares a past.
Chinese stars Li Bingbing and Winston Chao co-star, along with Ruby Rose, Rainn Wilson and Cliff Curtis.
The Meg is in UK/ROI cinemas August 10th.
The official synopsis reads:
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.
