Sharknado 2 title revealed - Telegraph When Sharknado launched on American TV last month, it sparked a Twitter storm as powerful as the tornado of sharks which terrorised the film's characters. So when Asylum, the production company behind the made-for-TV movie, announced there would be a Sharknado 2, they asked for Twitter users' help to name the sequel. The follow-up, which will be set in New York and released in July 2014, could have been called Sharkupy Wall Street or Zero Shark Thirty. More than 5,000 names were suggested over Twitter. However, network officials from SyFy, the channel it aired on in the US and UK, have decided to call the sequel Sharknado: The Second One. Sharknado was broadcast on SyFy UK on Wednesday and became the channel's highest-rated film of the year so far after more than 250,000 viewers tuned in.
