After the massive success of shark attack thriller 47 Meters Down this summer, a sequel is under development.
The original starring Mandy Moore and Claire Holt, became the highest-grossing indie smash of the summer in the U.S of 2017 ($53 million).
The sequel, 48 Meters Down changes location from Mexico to Brazil where a group of cave diving girls venture into some hidden underwater ruins not knowing one of the most deadliest shark species resides in the area.
47 Meters Down’s Postproduction was provided in a cooler climate of Creativity Media facilities in London where our online editors worked their magic in our state-of-the-art baselight grading theatres.
Once again, we look forward to seeing the next project take on the world’s greatest predator.
47 Meters Down is available on DVD Blu-ray and digital download this month. See more of our work here .

With a box office gross at over $45 million, we’re eager to see how the film does on home coasts.
47 Meters Down opens in cinemas on 26th July 2017.
