Antonio Banderas Headlines Above & Below as Trailer Confirms July 29 Theatrical Release
The shark‑attack thriller mixes cartel crime with creature‑feature danger to position itself inside this summer’s crowded slate of shark films.
Overview
- Aura Entertainment released the first trailer and confirmed Above & Below will open in theaters on July 29.
- Antonio Banderas leads an ensemble cast that includes Christina Ochoa and Laura Marano, with Jesse V. Johnson directing and Anthony Steven Giordano credited as the screenwriter.
- The film follows a group of friends on a diving trip off the coast of Mexico who become trapped between violent criminals on their boat and circling sharks below.
- Coverage highlights Banderas’s star power as the movie’s main commercial draw and describes the antagonists variably as criminal forces or a drug cartel taking over the boat.
- Beyond the trailer and core credits, outlets note few details about tone, effects, or critical response so early reporting leaves VFX, reviews, and box‑office appeal as the key things to watch.
