One way or the other, ‘Sharknado’ Will Return With an Origin Film

Nothing is really lifeless and gone nowadays, and that now consists of 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 time love. However earlier than he can provide a promise ring to affirm their relationship, what occurs in a Sharknado film occurs right here: cyclones deliver the aquatic carnivores out of the ocean and towards the individuals on the seashore 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 woman.

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