Roel Reiné directed the film, from a script written by Stephen David, with the story co-written by David, Tim K. Kelly and Jonathan Soule. The film plot centers around a small boat crew aboard a private yacht who are stranded in shark infested waters, following a storm that overturns their vessel.

Production

Following the summer staple's 30th anniversary, "there was a lot of discussion around, 'How do we build on this success?'" says Howard Swartz, Discovery's senior vice president of production and development. "So we decided to try something out of the box." In 2019, Discovery Channel announced the schedule for the 31st season of Shark Week. Among its release was the first scripted Shark Week Film, Capsized: Blood in the Water.

Discovery's Vice President of Production and Development, Howard Swartz, stated that following the years of success for the annual summer event, "there was a lot of discussion around, 'How do we build on this success?' ... So we decided to try something out of the box." The film was released as A Shark Week Film, the first of its kind.

Production took place in the Dominican Republic, at the Pinewood Studios location on the islands.

Much of the photography took place with the cast treading water in a 2.4 million gallon tank. Crew members reportedly worked for hours in the scorching heat, upon metal catwalks constructed over the large tank. The tank was filled with chest-high water, where the actors dramatized the film's events. Sharks were added to the scenes during post-production, through use of CGI special effects.

The score for the film was provided by Extreme Music. The company is used in various mediums, to creates music using multi-award-winning A-list talent. Extreme Music is a music production subsidiary of Sony Entertainment, Inc. and has provided music libraries for film and television since 1997.
