THE SHAPE OF WATER 2: TIDES OF SILENCE

Love once learned how to breathe underwater. The world above, however, never stopped creating monsters.

A decade has passed since the world last saw Elisa and the Amphibian Man, and their love story has since become nothing more than a whispered legend. Set against the backdrop of the cold, unyielding tension of the 1970s Cold War, the world has moved on, but the ocean never forgets.

The Shape of Water 2: Tides of Silence dives deep into the hauntingly beautiful world where love and fear exist in perfect harmony. Hidden beneath the crushing quiet of the Atlantic, Elisa (Sally Hawkins) and the Amphibian Man (Doug Jones) have become myths, their once vibrant bond faded but never entirely gone. Elisa has fully embraced her life in the deep, her body transformed by the ocean, her soul still intertwined with the creature who saved her. Yet, beneath the waves, her human heart still beats with the same fierce devotion that once defied an entire world.

But the surface world has never ceased to evolve—and with it, new threats rise. The Cold War’s shadow has not only brought fear of destruction but also new, far-reaching consequences. Elisa’s disappearance has sparked renewed government interest, and the hunt for the Amphibian Man is once again a matter of national security. Elisa and her love have become targets—haunted by a past they cannot escape, even in the depths of the ocean.

Reuniting Sally Hawkins, Doug Jones, Octavia Spencer, and Richard Jenkins, Tides of Silence takes us back into a world where love is the only thing that remains constant, even as fear rises to the surface once more.

The ocean holds its secrets, but the tides are changing. Elisa must confront the world she thought she left behind—and the monsters it’s still creating. And as the surface world seeks to control the depths, the love that once defied the impossible will now have to fight against forces far stronger than before.
