The first installment, Megalodon (2018), directed by Jon Turteltaub, managed to capture the audience’s attention with a gross of 529.2 million dollars. The plot revolves around a rescue mission in the depths of the ocean, where the heroes face a prehistoric shark.
Sharks that Dominate the Box Office
The sequel, Megalodon 2: The Trench (2023), directed by Ben Wheatley, brought in $398.5 million at the global box office. In this installment, an expedition to the ocean floor turns into a scene of chaos when the sea monster returns to sow terror among the characters. Both films are available on Netflix, offering nearly four hours of uninterrupted action for genre fans.
Fast & Furious continues to be Statham’s most lucrative franchise, accumulating over $7 billion in total, while The Expendables ranks third with over $840 million. On the horizon, the actor has the premiere of his next movie, Shelter: The Protector, scheduled for March 27, 2026. This new project has caught the attention of critics, receiving praise from prominent figures like Stephen King, who describes it as “fantastic.” The combination of action and an intriguing narrative promises to attract both Statham’s followers and movie lovers in general.
