The Office star Rainn Wilson has joined Jason Statham in prehistoric shark thriller Meg.

Based on a 1997 novel by Steve Alten, the film finds a giant shark causing trouble after an underwater observation experiment unwittingly unleashes a 70-foot-long Carcharodon megalodon.

The setting has been shifted to off the coast of modern-day China and it looks like Wilson will be the one who causes the arrival.

With a script from Dean Georgaris and James Vanderbilt, John Turteltaub is taking aim at a March 2018 release date.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot.
