An actual respectful adaptation to Steve Alten's MEG. Before Warner Bros. acquired the rights it was actually Universal that originally owned the rights for years and their adaptation was in development hell in the late '90s. The poster you see below is a very real 2006 poster. The development timeline I know from being so hyped I gathered what I could: 1997-2014 and yes it was on IMDb for reals, and it was originally purchased when the novel itself came out. Warner Bros. bought the rights, Universal canceled their adaptation. But now what if they still owned the rights and never sold it to Warner Bros. Oh, yes, Eli Roth was attached to direct for years even with Warner Bros.' "adaptation" megacrap. Movies are usually placed on the back burner for years and years, forgotten sometimes, then revived to finish what they started. Wishful thinking. From the pages of Steve Alten's best-seller comes a thriller from deep terror. After barely surviving a encounter with a prehistoric shark that may have been his imagination, Professor Jonas Taylor is approached by Terry Tanaka of the Tanaka Oceanographic Institute was sent by her father to look for him to check out damaged submersible in the Challenger Deep. What lays in that nightmarish darkness? If you see her glow it's too late....
