More casting news has arrived for the latest shark’s tale, 47 Meters Down, as THR is reporting that Matthew Modine has joined the cast opposite the previously announced Mandy Moore and Claire Holt.
The film centers on sisters Kate and Lisa (Holt and Moore) who decide to go diving to view Great White sharks while on vacation in Mexico. But when the cage breaks free from the boat and plummets to the ocean floor, Kate and Lisa find themselves trapped deep underwater with less than an hour of oxygen left in their tanks. They must somehow work out how to get back to the safety of the boat above through 47 meters of shark-infested waters.
Modine will play Taylor in the film, which is directed by Johannes Roberts and is currently shooting at Pinewood’s Dominican Republic water tank.
Synopsis:
Twenty-something sisters Kate and Lisa are gorgeous, fun-loving, and ready for the holiday of a lifetime in Mexico. When the opportunity to go cage diving to view Great White sharks presents itself, thrill-seeking Kate jumps at the chance while Lisa takes some convincing. After some not so gentle persuading, Lisa finally agrees, and the girls soon find themselves two hours off the coast of Huatulco and about to come face to face with nature’s fiercest predator.
But what should have been the trip to end all trips soon becomes a living nightmare when the shark cage breaks free from their boat, sinks, and they find themselves trapped at the bottom of the ocean. With less than an hour of oxygen left in their tanks, they must somehow work out how to get back to the boat above them through 47 meters of shark-infested waters.
