One of 2018s most successful movies was the Jason Statham giant shark movie The Meg. The film made over $500 million worldwide, making a sequel a no brainer, but we havent heard much about where The Meg 2 stands since then, other than the fact that its in the works. Well, at the press junket for Pet Sematary in Austin, CinemaBlend's own Sean O'Connell asked producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura for some insight about whats happening with The Meg 2. He responded:
Were working on a script. Yeah. So you never know until you get a good script. I was very thankful that the audience got that we were just trying to have fun, [and] not take ourselves seriously at all.
When we first heard that The Meg 2 was actually happening, it was said that the sequel was in the very early stages and while it is still early and we are a ways off from a release date, it sounds like there is work being done. As Lorenzo di Bonaventura told Sean, they are currently working on a script for the film and seemingly taking their time to get that right before moving forward.
Lorenzo di Bonaventura did seem to hedge things a bit with you never know, seemingly not wanting to commit to anything firm on The Meg 2 until there is a script. There doesnt seem to be a major rush and the focus at the moment is on getting that script and having it be good before the sequel moves to the next stage of development. But, it's encouraging to hear that the script is the primary driver of what happens next.
The other thing that Lorenzo di Bonaventura expressed to Sean was gratitude about the first films success and that the audience last summer really embraced The Meg and what it was going for. I think when the film was announced and we began to see trailers for it, the tone wasnt entirely clear.
Some initially thought that The Meg was going to take a more serious approach than it ultimately did, but audiences, especially those internationally, really embraced it and showed up to have fun with a ridiculous giant shark movie that didnt take itself seriously. Lorenzo di Bonaventura seems happy that the quintessential summer movie connected in that way.
Whats interesting about this is that although the silly approach worked at the box office, it didnt work for everyone. Some people would have preferred the bloodier, R-rated cut that director Jon Turteltaub teased. One person who seemed to lament the gorier, adult film The Meg could have been is actually the films star Jason Statham.
As far as where a sequel could go, The Meg is based on a series of novels by Steve Alten and that could provide a pathway forward for the franchise. The sequels up the ante even more, introducing more creatures long though extinct that could delight summer audiences. Director Jon Turteltaub just wants to make sure that the franchise doesnt turn into one with successively worse sequels where everything gets bigger, not better.
Well keep you updated on the latest on The Meg 2 as we hear it. In the meantime, check out our 2019 Release Schedule to see all the biggest movies looking to make a splash this year.

Taron Egerton didn't reveal why Elton John made the request that he not try and sound like him, so we are left to speculate. Perhaps hearing Taron Egerton's singing chops, Elton John just wanted the actor to use his own voice and not try and imitate him because it wouldn't be as powerful and authentic, and he would sound better if he didn't.
