Universal has announced Blue Crush 2, currently in production along the coast of South Africa, will bypass theaters and be released directly to Blu-ray Disc and DVD in spring 2011.
Blue Crush 2 stars Sasha Jackson (One Tree Hill), Sharni Vinson (Step Up 3-D), Elizabeth Mathis (Enchanted), Ben Milliken (Newcastle) newcomer Chris Fisher, and a slew of professional male and female surfers who make riding waves look like child’s play. The locations they’ll be tackling include Jeffrey’s Bay, North Beach, Glenmore, Banana Beach and Coffee Bay. Here’s the official synopsis:
Dana (Sasha Jackson) is 18, gorgeous and a killer surfer with a shelf full of trophies to prove it. When her father pressures her to buckle down and go to college, Dana flees her Beverly Hills home for the beaches of South Africa, the site of some of the world’s most awesome surf and her late mother’s home country. With her mom’s journal in hand and a mismatched gang of surf fanatics watching her back, Dana embarks on an odyssey along the breathtaking southern coast of Africa to fulfill her mother’s dream—one long, flawless journey down the barrel of the killer waves of J-Bay.
More Blue Crush 2 Blu-ray details and the release date will be passed along early next year.
