Meet the Cast of 'Sharknado 2: The Second One'

Feb. 21, 2014 — -- intro: In case you've been living under a rock for the past year, there was this huge phenomenon called "Sharknado" that took over Twitter last year when the made-for-TV movie aired on SyFy.

Sharks were literally dropping from the sky in the film and a group of Los Angeles residents, led by Ian Ziering, the former "Beverly Hills 90210" star, had to fight for their lives.
