A massive creature attacks a deep-sea submersible, leaving it disabled and trapping the crew at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. With time running out, rescue diver Jonas Taylor must save the crew and the ocean itself from an unimaginable threat -- a 75-foot-long prehistoric shark known as the Megalodon.

The film’s first attack takes place 200 miles off the Chinese coast and the international shark research institute is in China. Chinese actors Li Bingbing and Winston Chao have leading roles. Perhaps most importantly, China-based Gravity Pictures is a co-financer.
Alten told Variety what helped spark the idea. “When I was 35, struggling to support a family of five, I picked up an August 1995 issue of Time and it had a cover story about the Mariana Trench. And I thought, ‘wouldn’t it be neat if that shark were down there,’ so I began working on the book from 10 at night to 3 in the morning.”
Two years later, Alten published “Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror” as the story of a paleontologist who comes face to face with a massive 70-foot Megalodon in the Mariana Trench — the deepest known part of the world’s oceans at more than 36,000 feet — and attempts to prevent it from attacking humanity and giving birth to a family of Megalodons.
Disney picked up the movie rights in 1997 soon after the novel was published. It dropped the project a few years later, with Alten then setting up the movie at New Line, which attached “Speed” director Jan de Bont. But New Line went through a painful downsizing in 2007 so the rights reverted back to Alten again.
