Jack Aubrey Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Well, of all the shark movies H'wood has made, it is universally recognized that the only good one was 'Jaws'. Will they ever be able to match it? Here's the skinny on 'Meg': For those not in the know, there is to be a big budget shark movie to hit screens in 2006. MEG is based on the novel by Steve Alten, and is to be directed by Jan 'SPEED' De Bont. Shane Salerno (Shaft) is currently doing a rewrite for the $75 million film. Alten spoke to TV Guide about the project. "Like in the novel, the Megalodon that will be used in the movie will be a ghostly albino, her lack of pigment reflecting her ancestors' existence in the depths of the Mariana Trench. She'll be pretty scarred up and gruesome, with some features that make her unique from her modern-day cousin, the Great White. Most of all, she'll be big. Very big."
