BackstageOL’s Dave Morales sat down with Matthew Modine and Yani Gellman in this backstage interview to talk about survival horror film, 47 Meters Down.

In the interview, Modine and Gellman talk about visiting Houston, Texas, how they got involved with the shark thriller, and why audiences should not fear sharks.

The film’s synopsis:

Young sisters Kate and Lisa and travel to Mexico for a vacation filled with sun, fun and adventure. Lisa needs some extra persuasion when Kate suggests that they go diving in shark-infested waters. Safe in their protective cage, the thrill-seeking siblings come face to face with a group of majestic great whites. Their worst fears soon become a reality when the cage breaks away from their boat, sending them plummeting to the ocean floor with a dwindling supply of oxygen.
