Hollywood star Jason Statham is back in his action avatar in the trailer for Meg 2: The Trench. The Meg 2 trailer showcases giant sharks, which are causing a ruckus in the Mariana Trench. The upcoming thriller-science fiction film features a glimpse into the Jurassic Age to establish just how ancient and primal gigantic sharks are. 

The trailer also showcases that there isn’t only one indomitable force from the trenches to reckon with, as a sea creature with tentacles is also seen attacking people. The trailer kicks off with creatures from the Jurassic Age living in their habitat until they’re attacked by the giant sharks. Fast forward to hundreds of million years, and the trailer shows three sharks attacking a group of tourists. 

Meg 2: The Trench will unravel the struggle between the giant menacing creatures as Jason Statham and his team take them on. Equipped with high-tech gear for deep sea explorations, the team finds a primordial threat waiting in the depths. Statham shared the trailer on Instagram, and captioned it, “#Meg2 in theatres August 4." Check out the trailer for Meg 2: The Trench below.
