Warner Bros. Pictures and IMAX announced that they are working on a sequel to Deep Sea 3D for a 2009 release.
Deep Sea-quel, the working title, will be made by the same team that was behind Deep Sea 3D, which has grossed more than $40M since its debut last March.
“The strong results from ‘Into The Deep’ and ‘Deep Sea 3D’ serve as a testament that this is a subject matter that plays beautifully on IMAX screens, and has time-tested appeal to moviegoers worldwide,” said Dan Fellman, president, domestic distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures. “We look forward to working with Howard and Michele Hall once again, to transport audiences to some of the most amazing undersea locations in the world.”
