Someway, ‘Sharknado’ Will Return With an Origin Film

Nothing is really useless and gone lately, and that now contains Sharknado. Of all issues, Syfy’s horror-disaster series is making a comeback with, you guessed it, an origin story.

Dubbed Sharknado Origins, due to course, the seventh entry is coming courtesy of B-horror studio the Asylum. Per Variety, this new movie will start manufacturing later in 2025 with Anthony Ferrante on the helm, who beforehand directed the primary six motion pictures. So far as casting goes, that’ll be revealed “quickly,” and the 2 leads will play younger variations of Fin and April, the principle couple performed by Ian Ziering and Tara Reid within the originals.

Because the movie opens, the 2 have simply met for the primary time and enter the throes of summer season love. However earlier than he can provide a promise ring to affirm their relationship, what occurs in a Sharknado film occurs right here: cyclones carry the aquatic carnivores out of the ocean and towards the folks on the seaside and round city, presumably resulting in a complete bunch of murders. So Fin’ll need to do what he began doing (technically) in 2013: kick ass, kill sharks, and get the lady.

The unique Sharknado was successful that Syfy became a complete franchise, full with three spinoffs. (That will be Lavalantula, its sequel 2 Lava 2 Lantula, and 2025 Armageddon, the latter of which satirically launched in 2022.) In the intervening time, it’s unclear if Sharknado Origins will discover its method to Syfy like its predecessors or someplace new, however the Asylum hopes to have it out someday in summer season 2026.
