‘Sharknado’ Sequel Gets An Official Title!

Briefly: Just hours before Sharknado screenwriter Thunder Levin appears live on Geekscape #299 (check it out here), Syfy has revealed the official title for the surprising smash-hit’s impending sequel.

Ready? You’ve never heard a title this clever.

The Sharnado sequel, which will release in July of 2014, is called Sharknado 2: The Second One.

Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Thomas Vitale, executive VP of programming at Syfy stated that “Since Twitter played such a huge role in the success of the original movie, we wanted to use that platform to ask our fans to name Sharknado 2. This response is another reminder of how Sharknado has become a pop culture phenomenon. We want to thank all our viewers for their wonderful contributions to keeping up the shark-mentum.”

Pop culture phenomenon is right. Since Sharknado‘s original airdate on July 11th, not a single day has passed in which I haven’t seen or heard someone talking about the film.

Let us know what you think of the title, and don’t forget to watch tonight’s Geekscape with Thunder Levin!
