About Shark Week 2022

Shark Week, summer’s annual programming spectacular, returns to Discovery on July 24! Join the first ever Master of Ceremonies Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as he takes viewers through over 20 hours of never-before-seen footage, images, and stories bound to get your adrenaline flowing. While special guests such as Tracy Morgan and the cast of Jackass make appearances, the true stars are the ferocious fish that scour the oceans in search of prey!

Viewers will be taken to unique locations across the globe such as the Exuma Islands in the Bahamas and Papua New Guinea with some of the world’s preeminent biologists and researchers. The week will showcase how scientists learn about these amazing creatures, highlighting new technologies and techniques used to capture important migration data. There may even be a new species to discover!

Johnson hosts each night with a special message that inspires viewers to learn that sharks are more than undersea assassins, and how their spirit is treasured by Polynesian culture.
