A new trailer has gone online for 47 Meters Down. The shark thriller is directed by Johannes Roberts (The Other Side of the Door) and stars pop-singer-turned-actress Mandy Moore (pictured above) and Claire Holt (”Aquarius”) as hot cage-diving sisters trapped undersea with great whites.
47 Meters Down finds Moore and Holt vacationing in Mexico off the coast of Huatulco on a cage-diving expedition to observe great white sharks. When cables snap, the cage sinks to the bottom of the ocean and the sisters have less than an hour of oxygen to get back to the surface in shark infested waters.
The movie looks fun, but how many times can the chicks keep dodging the shark bites!
