And here's the official synopsis from Sony:

"In the taut thriller The Shallows, when Nancy (Blake Lively) is surfing on a secluded beach, she finds herself on the feeding ground of a great white shark. Though she is stranded only 200 yards from shore, survival proves to be the ultimate test of wills, requiring all of Nancy's ingenuity, resourcefulness, and fortitude."


Apparently Ryan Reynolds inspired Blake to take on this role. As she told Entertainment Weekly, "My husband did a movie called 'Buried' and that was one of the reasons why I wanted to take on this movie so much, because I know how tough that was for him and how rewarding it was. It was terrifying and one of the most vulnerable things you can do but you gotta do it, right?"

"The Shallows" is currently scheduled for release on June 29.
