Sharknado is going global! Fans of the series will be thrilled to hear that a fifth installment will air on SYFY in the not too distant future. In fact, it’s targeted for the summer with intentions to make America bait again!
Today SYFY and The Asylum revealed its chilling official title, Sharknado 5: Global Swarming. A title which was heavily inspired by the fans on Facebook, who submitted their most creative and outrageous ideas via an interactive bot.
