The popular shark attack movie franchise is returning for another installment, and there are already a ton of exciting updates about 47 Meters Down 3. In 2017's 47 Meters Down, sisters Lisa (Mandy Moore) and Kate (Claire Holt) struggle to maintain their sanity after being trapped underwater in a diving cage among sharks. 47 Meters Down: Uncaged tells an entirely new story as its characters explore an underwater city and are once again attacked by bloodthirsty sharks. Though the shark attack genre is hardly new, the 47 Meters Down franchise has brought it into the 21st century.
Critically speaking, both 47 Meters Down films have been somewhat poorly received by critics, and though they're better than the cheesiest shark attack movies, they're hardly high art as well. Fortunately, they have proven to be hits at the box office, and their low budget has kept the profit margin high between 47 Meters Down and its 2019 sequel. Now, plans are in place to bring the shark madness back to the big screen, and 47 Meters Down 3 is already in the works.
