A media frenzy looms – just when you thought it was safe to Tweet, Facebook, or Instagram again!

 

In a press release:

SHARKNADO 2 GETS THE GREENLIGHT FROM SYFY – AND WILL TAKE A BITE OUT OF THE BIG APPLE!

 

SHARKNADO 2 PREMIERES ON SYFY IN 2014

                                                         

TWITTER CONTEST TO NAME THE MOVIE!

NEW YORK – July 17, 2013 – Which city will be attacked by flying sharks next? New York City! Following the spectacular worldwide social media frenzy around the July 11 premiere of Sharknado, Syfy today announced it will produce – Sharknado 2!

 

Sharknado 2 (working title), which will again be produced by The Asylum, is scheduled to premiere on Syfy in 2014.

 

Syfy also announced a special Twitter contest to help name the movie with an appropriate subtitle. Fans will be able to tweet their subtitle to @SyfyMovies using #Sharknado. Syfy will select the best submission as the subtitle for Sharknado 2.

 

In making the announcement, Thomas Vitale, Executive Vice President, Programming and Original Movies, Syfy, said: “Every once in a while, there is a perfect storm – on television. The fans are clamoring for a sequel. Or perhaps it will be a prequel. What we can guarantee is that Sharknado 2 will be lots of fun. We’ll be announcing more details very soon. But we didn’t want our fans to worry they wouldn’t get their fill of more shark fin, I mean, fun next year.”

 

Up in the sky. It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, it’s a…shark!

In Sharknado, regulars of a beachside bar including owner Fin (Ian Ziering/Beverly Hills90210), bartender Nova (Cassie Scerbo/Make It OrBreak It) and local drunk George (John Heard/Home Alone) team up with Fin’s ex-wife April (Tara Reid/Scrubs) to investigate the ecological nightmare that has sharks swimming through the streets of Los Angeles and falling from the skies.
