About
Water Park Shark is a creature-feature horror film from The Asylum, directed by Anthony C. Ferrante, the man behind all six installments of the Sharknado franchise. The premise: when Great White Sharks storm a Cape Cod water park, a washed-up football star-turned-lifeguard and his ex-girlfriend police chief must uncover the shocking secret drawing in the ocean's biggest predators before it's too late. The cast includes David Chokachi (Baywatch), Chelsea Gilson, Matthew Dame, and Kacie Patricia. Ferrante has built a prolific career in shark cinema. Beyond the Sharknado hexalogy, he directed Great White Waters (2025) for Tubi and is simultaneously developing Sharknado Origins, a prequel scheduled for summer 2026 release that will introduce teenage versions of the Fin and April characters originated by Ian Ziering and Tara Reid. The Asylum, known for producing low-budget "mockbusters" and creature features, has made shark movies into a reliable content pipeline. Water Park Shark is set in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, leveraging the region's deep association with shark lore -- Cape Cod has seen a significant increase in Great White Shark sightings in recent years due to the recovering seal population, making it a natural and timely setting for the film.
