Yes, that’s right—these maestros of B-movie madness are plotting a fiercer-than-ever return to their iconic outrage with this highly anticipated seventh installment.
Hot off the press from Variety, whispers about the upcoming Sharknado Origins suggest that the film already has its nautical sights set on making waves by summer 2026.

Tired of playing catch-up? Dive into the story from the very beginning as Sharknado Origins takes us back before the iconic 2013 classic. It’s romance thrown into a blender of sharks and gusty winds, as young versions of Fin and April experience the first-ever Sharknado. Who knows if the OG stars Ian Ziering and Tara Reid will make a cameo, but one thing's for sure—you can count on some killer nostalgia spiced up with that signature tongue-in-cheek humor.
We’ve surfed through titles like Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!, Sharknado: The 4th Awakens, and Sharknado 5: Global Swarming, only to battle through The Last Sharknado—and yet here we are, ready to discover how it all kicked off! For those who thought the journey ended in 2018, think again. The deluge of ridiculousness continues!
Sharknado Origins currently lacks a precise release date, leaving us hungry for more details on its cinematic splash—will it hit TV once more or land a full-blown theatrical outing? Either way, it promises to be a storm to remember. Until then, take a bite out of our favorite unbelievable shark films that left us questioning reality.
