Renny Harlin‘s (Deep Blue Sea) upcoming orca horror movie, Black Tides has added Melissa Barrera(Scream).

Barrera will star alongside John Travolta.

Ella Bleu Travolta (The Poison Rose), Álvaro Mel (A Perfect Story) and Dylan Torrell (Islands) also star.

Black Tides follows Bill Pierce (Travolta), an estranged father trying to reconnect with his daughter Rebecca (Barrera) and grandson Sebastian (Torrell) when their sailboat is attacked by rogue orcas off the southern Spanish coast—setting off a fight for survival across open waters.

Chris Sparling (Greenland) and Ángel Agudo (Apocalypse Z) wrote the film.

“Melissa brings both fire and vulnerability to a role that demands it all—emotionally, physically, and cinematically,” Harlin said in a statement. “She and John are movie magic together, and they elevate every beat of this story.”

“Shooting at sea is one of the hardest things you can do in film but the footage we’re getting is stunning,” added producer Adrián Guerra. “The cast has bonded in a way that’s rare and powerful, and Renny’s directing chops are on full display—balancing raw spectacle with real human emotion.”
