Under Paris is getting a sequel

The news no-one really wanted, a sequel to Under Paris is in the works, with a 2025 filming start scheduled.

In my review of Under Paris, i said it was watchable as a background movie I suppose, but it really fails to deliver and just ends up dragging before anything half decent actually happens.

But after that ending, and the fact the film did well on Netflix, a sequel was always going to happen.

The first movie, directed by Xavier Gens, followed a scientist trying to stop a major disaster in the Seine River, where a giant shark is lurking.

Under Paris is Netflix France's most-watched movie ever and ranks as one of the top French series as well. 

The film spent 15 weeks in the global top 10 non-English films, with 179.8 million hours watched, roughly 130.9 million views, and it's the second most popular non-English film on Netflix.

Actress Bérénice Bejo shared the news about the sequel, saying, 
We will start filming Under Paris 2 in September 2025. It won’t be just another sequel; it will be a completely different film... but still with a shark.

Director Xavier Gens had hinted at a possible sequel earlier this year, saying that if it happens, it could take place in a Paris that is completely flooded.
