Cast & Crew
Matt Roush says...
The annual summer feeding frenzy for shark-related documentaries kicks off with the 12th annual SharkFest, opening with a special in which Marvel star Anthony Mackie heads to his New Orleans hometown to learn about a troubling local trend of sharks swallowing up a fisherman’s catch before it can be retrieved. Followed by Shark vs. Ross Edgley (10/9c), where the British marathon swimmer pushes his body’s limits by attempting to match the speed, strength, agility and even the digestive ability of sharks in a series of challenges. Specials continue through the week, with new offerings and enhanced repeats airing across platforms including Nat Geo WILD, Nat Geo Mundo, ESPN2 and streaming on Disney+ and Hulu.
