The Real Housewives are experts when it comes to throwing and dodging shade, but we didn't know they're also good at avoiding Sharknados. Well, Kenya Moore and Cynthia Bailey will be attempting to survive that annual summer weather phenomenon known as Sharknado when the fourth film in the SyFy franchise hits airwaves this July 31. And leading man Ian Ziering is giving us some scoop on what to expect this time around.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta on Peacock and the Bravo App.

"You know what? It was great to have them on the show," Ian told The Daily Dish at the NBCUniversal upfront presentation on Monday, where he also teased that RHOBH alum Brandi Glanville also has a cameo. "They put an oar in the water like everyone else does in these movies and help propel it to what it's gonna be." E! News further reports that Stacey Dash, Patti Stanger, Dr. Drew, Married With Children's David Faustino, Vince Neil, Slipknot's Corey Taylor, Wayne Newton; and Todd, Savannah, and Grayson Chrisley will also appear in the flick.

Now that the franchise has welcomed the RHOA ladies, Reza Farahan, and Kim Richards, there's still one Bravoleb Ian has on his Sharknado bucket list. "I'm waiting for Andy [Cohen]. We'll have to get Andy for five," he said. Well, if the next film is as popular as the first three, a fifth installment is possible. And, by now, Ian is used to making waves with the franchise.

"After I saw the first movie and saw the attention that it was garnering, it wasn't really a surprise to me. It's a really really fun movie, so there was an immediate clamoring for a sequel," he said. "And that aired to the tune of over a billion twitter impressions, that's with a B. What gets that? As three airs, there's over 2 billion Twitter impressions."

To pass the time until July 31, check out some throwback photos of Ian, below.
