How Many More Meg Movies Jason Statham Can Make Based On The Books

Jason Statham Can Make Six More Meg Movies (At Least)



The first two Meg adapt Steve Alten's books of the same name. Here's a breakdown of how many more books the franchise can adapt in future installments.

The Meg movie series takes creative liberties with Steven Alten's book series, including changes to romantic aspects and the Megalodon's name, but stays true to the primary story developments.

Jason Statham's first Meg movie adapted the first book, and there are still six more books in Alten's series that could be adapted for future movies.

Despite mixed reviews, the success of Meg 2: The Trench at the box office indicates a likelihood of Meg 3 and more movies in the franchise, potentially including other novels in the same universe.

The first Meg movie adapted Steve Alten's first novel, Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror, which was published in 1997. Meg 2: The Trench took on the story of the second installment in Steve Allen's Meg book series. Since the second book's release in 1999, Steven Allen has written five new Meg novels: Meg: Primal Waters (2004), Meg: Hell's Aquarium (2009), Meg: Origins (2011), Meg: Nightstalkers (2016) and, Meg: Generations (2020). An eighth installment for the book series, Meg: Purgatory, is also scheduled to be released in 2024, leaving six books worth of source material content for future Meg movies.
