He was joined by American Pie star Tara Reid who is set to reprise her role as April Wexler in the film – she has starred in the first four films in the franchise.

It also features Ian Zierig playing ‘Fin’ who attempts to stop a global sharknado.

A sharknado, according to Urban Dictionary, is “A hell-storm of swirling winds and killer sharks capable of leveling small towns and turning mediocre B-list celebrities into has-been D-listers.”

Daley is taking up his first acting role in the film, but it is unclear whether he plays a character or is making a cameo.

Spotted in London, he didn’t wear his signature speedos, but appeared fully clothed as dozens looked on.

‘Sharknado 5… Earth 0’ is described in its synopsis as: “With much of North America lying in ruins, the rest of the world braces for the inevitable: a global sharknado,’ the synopsis reads.

“From London to Asia, South Africa to Mexico, Fin and his family must put a stop to the sharknados once and for all.”
