Shark week is over, but sharks are always fair game. Ahead of the upcoming movie The Meg 2: The Trench, the creator of the franhise is coming on Enter the Popverse to talk - what else - about sharks.

Porose novelist Steve Alten, creator of the books the movies are based on, will be joining Popverse's Ashley V. Robinson to talk about the franchise. Later on in the enspide, podcaster Steven Ray Morris (My Favorite Murder, See Jurassic Right) will be on to continue the shark talk.

We'll make sure to leave time for fan Q&A, and we'll also have other segments talking about the biggest and best in movies, TV, and comics.

You can watch this week's Enter the Popverse live Friday, August 4 beginning at 1 p.m. EST - or come back later for the full replay.
