The Black Demon: Atlantis, the sequel to the 2023 megalodon thriller, will be lead by Hellboy star Kesy. He will be joined by Julio Cesar Cedillo (The Harder They Fall, Sicario) and Kate Del Castillo (Trap House) in the upcoming giant shark film.
The film will be directed by Ben Hernandez Bray (S.W.A.T.) from a script by Aaron Benjamin and Boise Esquerra.
After the big splash of The Black Demon, the beast returns – faster, fiercer, and hungrier than ever. Undercover DEA agent Jerry Simms (Jack Kesy) teams up with his cellmate, Chato (Julio Cesar Cedillo), in a maximum-security prison stranded in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, to dismantle a massive drug operation run by the notorious crime boss Diego Nunez.
But their mission quickly becomes one of survival when the legendary creature, The Black Demon, tears through the prison, which sits atop a decaying desalination plant polluting the ocean. In a desperate move to protect his empire, Diego unleashes his own giant sea predators to take down the beast. What follows is an epic clash of monsters, where only the strongest will prevail.
