I wanted to understand the process of making a sea monster movie."

The first film in the "Megalodon" series shows that under the thermocline, there is a prehistoric underwater world that did not disappear tens of millions of years ago. In "Megalodon 2: The Abyss", Jonas played by Jason Statham and Zhang Jiuming played by Wu Jing will cross the thermocline and take the audience to dive to the ocean abyss at a depth of more than 7,000 meters, exploring the more unknown and mysterious prehistoric underwater world. Not only will they be pursued by larger and more powerful megalodon colonies, but they will also face more ambushes from ancient Cretaceous monsters that have never been seen before.

In 2018, "Megalodon" won 1.053 billion yuan at the mainland box office and 533 million US dollars at the global box office, setting off a "shark fever" around the world, and the "Megalodon" series has also become one of the most anticipated movie IPs by global audiences. This time the Ocean Overlord upgrade returns, and the top behind-the-scenes production team escorts it. Peter Bebb, the visual effects supervisor who won the 83rd Academy Award for Best Visual Effects for "Inception", will lead the visual effects team to bring more stunning visual effects scenes and immersive viewing experience. In addition, the previous starring Cai Shuya, Cliff Curtis and Page Kennedy will also return, as well as internationally renowned actors such as Skyler Samuels, Sienna Gellly, Sergio Perris Mencheta, etc.
