Faithful to the premise of Steve Alten’s 1997 book, Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror, a group of international scientists embark on an undersea observation program, only to face their worst nightmare. Trapped in their damaged submarine in the depths of the vast ocean realm, they try to escape - but in the way is a snapping 75-foot long primeval shark, the Megalodon! Thought to be extinct millions of years ago, this blast from the past is ready to feed its appetite. But will Statham’s action-happy rescue diver Jonas Taylor go down without a fight?
