Sharks. Bankers. Affairs. Those are the themes of three projects starring Guiding Light alum Nia Long (ex-Kat Speakes) that will soon be released to fans.
Guiding Light alum Nia Long (ex-Kat Speakes) is a busy woman. Make that a very busy woman.
Movie audiences will see Long starting this week when the thriller 47 Meters Down Uncaged is released in theaters nationwide.
The film follows the story of four teen girls diving in a ruined underwater city, who quickly find themselves in a watery hell as their fun outing turns into heart-stopping fear when they learn they are not alone in the submerged caves. As they swim deeper into the claustrophobic labyrinth of caves, they enter the territory of the deadliest shark species in the ocean.
