I’ve got a few questions for you. Are you looking forward to The Meg? Are you a fan of seeing movies before they’re in theaters? Will you be in the Los Angeles area July 30th? And, finally, would you like to see Ruby Rose participate in a Q&A? If you answered yes to these questions I’m about to make you very happy.

On July 30th at 7:30pm at the ArcLight Hollywood, Collider is partnering up with ArcLight Cinemas and Warner Bros. for an early screening of The Meg and after the screening ends, I’ll be moderating a Q&A with Ruby Rose.

To tell you a bit about the story, The Meg stars Jason Statham as a former deep sea rescue diver who must face down a prehistoric shark—the Megalodon—and save a team of scientist trapped at the bottom of the ocean. The film is helmed by National Treasure director Jon Turteltaub from a script by Dean Georgaris (Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Cradle of Life) and Jon Hoeber & Erich Hoeber (RED). A presentation of Warner Bros. Pictures and Gravity Pictures, the film was produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Belle Avery and Colin Wilson.

I’ve seen the film and it’s the type of movie you want to see on a huge screen with a big crowd – especially when the Megalodon makes its presence known...

The Meg also stars Li BingbingRainn Wilson, Winston ChaoPage Kennedy, Jessica McNameeÓlafur Darris Ólafsson, Robert Taylor, Sophia Cai, Masi Oka and Cliff CurtisWatch the first trailer below. The Meg is in theaters August 10th.

Here’s the official synopsis for The Meg:

“In the film, a deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below…bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.”
