Swiss director Claudio Fah's No Way Up brings a toy for sharks roaming an ocean. That toy is stuffed with food for them and lots of humans. The film was already released a year ago.
Claudio made his first directorial debut in 2003 with Coronado. That title and No Way Up are certain to tickle the brain about the poorly received franchise Sharknado. We don't know about the budget Claudio's film had but it has garnered $4.5 million since its release, according to Box Office Mojo.
The film is produced by Andy Mason and Annalise and stars Sophie McIntosh, Will Attenborough, Jeremias Amoore Davis, and more. According to the critics, that film holds 38% approval on Tomatometer and 4.6 out of 10 on IMDb based on around 10k user ratings at the time of writing.
Major details we know regarding No Way Up
When was the film released?
No Way Up was actually released in Russia last year on January 18, 2024; it hit the UK screens on February 12, 2024, and later on February 16, 2024, in the US. Altitude Film Distribution took charge of the UK and Ireland distribution, while RLJE Films did that for the US.
In August 2024, the film, unlike its name, made it up to the UK charts on Amazon Prime.
Who acted in the film?
The film sees a group of survivors trying to find a way. So, we cannot really say a particular actor leads the film. Although Sophie McIntosh's Ava is among the three survivors, in the end, she can be called the main character in it.
Jeremias Amoore plays Jed, Ava's boyfriend, who succumbs to a wound after a shark bites off his leg. Then there's Will Attenborough, who plays his friend Kyle and is injured earlier in the film.
The last remaining survivors, Rosa and Danilo, are played by Grace Nettle and Manuel Pacific, respectively. Rosa's character carries this stuffed animal with her, which holds an emotional place in her heart.
A few more characters are there, and most eventually die in the film before the final three are rescued. Here's the list of the remaining names:
- Colm Meaney as Brandon
- Phyllis Logan as Mardy 'Nana'
- James Carroll Jordan as Hank
- Carlos Agualusa as Check-In Officer
- Peppijna Dalli as Madison
- David Samartin as Eli (Pilot)
- Scott Coker as Liam (Pilot)
David J. Biscoe and Lee Byford are in uncredited roles in No Way Up.
What is No Way Up about?
It's about a crashed plane in an ocean where a few survivors are trying to find their way up. The plot available on the website of one of the film's production companies, Dimension Studio, will clear that up further,
Trending
"No Way Up is a disaster movie and survival thriller that embraced previs and virtual production techniques for the telling of the stricken plane that crashes into the Pacific Ocean, teetering dangerously close to a deep ravine."
That film essentially takes place underwater, where principal photography happened in London and wrapped up in May 2022. American actor and comedian Kelsey Grammer was set to star as Brandon in the film but was replaced later.
