Step aside, *Sharknado*. There's a new shark-centric disaster movie making its way to the masses.

On Thursday, Netflix released the trailer for *Thrash* — the streamer's new thriller directed by Tommy Wirkola and produced by Adam McKay. The film, out on April 10, follows terrified residents of a coastal town as they fight off deadly predators that arrive alongside a massive hurricane.

"Sharks on the loose in the Category 5 storm,” star Djimon Hounsou announces in the trailer. “Let’s move!”

The movie also stars *Bridgerton*'s Phoebe Dynevor, who plays a very pregnant woman battling devastating flooding, killer sharks, and intense childbirth ... all at once.

“I am not going to have him die before he takes his first breath,” Dynvenor says of her unborn baby in the trailer.

Whitney Peak, Matt Nable, Andrew Lees, Alyla Browne, Stacy Clausen, Elijah Ungvary and Dante Ubaldi round out the cast, who are no doubt anticipating the film's release following multiple switch-ups. The project, initially announced in 2024 with the title *Beneath the Storm*, was first set at Sony Pictures. A year later, the movie was renamed *Shiver *but ultimately dropped from the studio's calendar.

Earlier this year, news broke that the then-untitled flick would move to a Netflix launch after its theatrical release was cut by Sony. Netflix has a first-look deal with Sony for direct-to-streaming projects and a global Pay-1 licensing deal for Sony features to stream on Netflix worldwide after their theatrical and home media windows.

As for how she feels about the film, Dynevor told Collider last year that she "can't wait for people to see it."

“I’m so excited about this movie,” Dynevor said. “It’s big. It’s sharks. It’s hurricanes. It’s all of those things, and I’m a nine-month pregnant lady who has to go through a lot in those 24 hours. It's a fun one.”
