Before it turned out swell, Spielberg felt like he was drowning
Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story (M, 88 minutes, Disney+) 4 stars Half a century ago, one film swam along and changed the film industry. It sounds like a grand statement to make, but that really was the case with Jaws. The seminal Steven Spielberg thriller became the first summer blockbuster (though, of course, it was winter in our hemisphere) to break all sorts of box office records and created a cultural juggernaut the size of which had never been seen before. To mark five decades since its release, Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story on Disney+ takes you back to the famously difficult production with generous archive footage and interviews from the past and present. The documentary, released under the National Geographic banner, is helmed by Laurent Bouzereau, a prolific film documentary and special features director who already delivered The Making of Jaws back in 1995. If you're a cinephile or particularly die-hard fan of Jaws, there's a good chance that most of the information in Jaws @ 50 will not come as a shock. Other documentaries over the years have delved deeply into this film, and even the most casual film fan already knows bits of trivia, like the fact the mechanical shark was named Bruce, and the film was shot on Martha's Vineyard, an island off the Massachusetts coast. But familiarity with the content doesn't detract from the enjoyment of this film. Bouzereau has conducted new interviews with people involved with the production, their relatives, shark experts and other filmmakers who have been inspired by Jaws. It's always nice to see Spielberg talking about the film that really made his career. Before Jaws came along, the young filmmaker was an up-and-comer, impressing with made-for-TV films including the influential Duel, an action-packed thrill ride about a large truck chasing a smaller car for the length of the film. When Spielberg came across the not-yet-published galleys of Peter Benchley's novel Jaws, he thought it was just like Duel - this huge, unrelenting predator on the prowl. So he asked if he could direct the film, and when the original choice left the project, he was in. But the production was far from smooth, and nearly everything that could go wrong with Bruce the shark, did. It was designed for freshwater instead of seawater, which wreaked havoc with the mechanics. It moved the wrong way. When it finally worked, the boat sank. Spielberg spent the production - which was running significantly over budget and well beyond schedule - thinking he'd be fired, and still suffered traumatic panic attacks and insomnia for years after the film wrapped. Cast members also failed to get along - Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss particularly butted heads, and Shaw's persistent drinking didn't help matters. But most of the Jaws cast was made up of locals on the island, and it's fantastic to see how much pride those remaining cast members and islanders still have in the film production. Jaws has had a huge impact on filmmaking since its release, and industry figures like Mexican Guillermo del Toro (Oscar-winning writer-director of The Shape of Water), Jaws superfan Steven Soderbergh (Oscar-winning director of Traffic) and English actress Emily Blunt (Oscar-nominated star of Oppenheimer), who claims to have seen Jaws more than any other film, are more than happy to talk about how much the shark thriller means to them and has impacted their appreciation of cinema. What this documentary has that the others don't is the inclusion of a fully restored Bruce to the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles. If you're a lover of the film, it's a delight to see the huge creature craned into the museum, to be revered by all the visitors who walk through its doors. While Jaws @ 50 might not be the most eye-opening documentary if you're well-versed in the history of the film, if you've never seen a doco or featurette on Jaws, it's bound to bring you joy.

How to watch the 'Jaws 'movies in order, from the original to 'The Revenge'
Key Points The Jaws franchise spans four films released between 1975 and 1987. Each movie features a new deadly encounter with a great white shark. While not tightly connected, the sequels loosely follow the Brody films have had the cultural impact of Jaws, the 1975 thriller that not only terrified a generation of beachgoers but also launched the modern summer blockbuster. Directed by a budding Steven Spielberg, the original movie became a massive critical and commercial success, blending suspense, horror, memorable characters, and John Williams' ominous Oscar-winning score to create a cinematic milestone. What started as a single shark attack on the fictional shores of Amity Island soon grew into a full-blown franchise, spawning three gory sequels between 1978 and 1987. While the quality and tone of the films vary, each installment delivers its own brand of blood-soaked chaos. With all four Jaws films now streaming on Netflix during the original's 50th anniversary, there's never been a better time to revisit the series (or dive in for the first time). Here's how to watch the Jaws movies in order. Jaws (1975) Ah, the one that started it all. Directed by Steven Spielberg and based on Peter Benchley's novel of the same name, Jaws follows police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) as he battles a great white shark terrorizing Amity Island. Despite Brody's warnings, the mayor refuses to close the beaches to save the tourist season, and the results turn deadly. Jaws was Spielberg's second major studio film behind 1974's The Sugarland Express, and it quickly spiraled into pure chaos. The shoot ran way over budget and schedule, the mechanical sharks constantly broke down, and tensions among the cast often flared. "When the film wrapped Martha's Vineyard, I had a full-blown panic attack," Spielberg recalled in the July 2025 documentary Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story. "I couldn't breathe, I thought I was having a heart attack. ... It was everything that I had experienced on the island, trying to hold myself together, but hold the crew together. I felt really responsible for keeping them there for as long as we had to stay." But these complications didn't doom the final product. Released on June 20, 1975, it became a cultural phenomenon and redefined the modern blockbuster. "Steven Spielberg's granddaddy of all great white movies isn't just great for a shark movie, it's a great movie period. A masterpiece, in fact," Entertainment Weekly's staffer wrote in 2025. "Spielberg's malfunctioning mechanical monster forced the director to be clever, suggestive, and Hitchcockian — the scariest moments in the film are the ones where you don't see what lies beneath the water line, but anticipate what could be." Where to watch Jaws: Netflix Jaws 2 (1978) Jaws spawned three sequels, each receiving progressively less critical acclaim and weaker box office results. However, its immediate sequel, Jaws 2 (1978), is generally considered the best among them. Spielberg was not interested in returning to direct a sequel. After John D. Hancock was let go just days into filming, Jeannot Szwarc ultimately stepped up as the director of Jaws 2. Scheider, Lorraine Gary, Murray Hamilton, and Jeffrey Kramer reprised their roles as Chief Brody, Ellen Brody, Mayor Larry Vaughn, and Deputy Leonard Hendricks, respectively. The movie, which is strikingly similar to its predecessor, centers on Brody's growing suspicion that a new great white shark is threatening Amity Island, a fear confirmed as a series of attacks and disappearances soon occur on the beach. As noted by EW's critic, Jaws 2 is a "pretty steep come-down from Spielberg's brilliant original. But if watched in a vacuum, it's a decent enough bit of disposable fun." Where to watch Jaws 2: Netflix Jaws 3-D (1983) Jaws 3-D takes a sharp turn away from the original Jaws films, not just in quality, but also in casting. None of the original actors return; instead, we get Dennis Quaid, Bess Armstrong, Simon MacCorkindale, Lea Thompson, and Louis Gossett Jr. The story follows the grown-up Brody kids, Mike (Quaid) and Sean (John Putch), who now spend their days at SeaWorld in Florida. Somehow, a young great white shark sneaks into the park, but the real trouble starts when its much larger, angrier mother comes looking for it and wreaks havoc along the way. Originally released in 3-D (which didn't age well outside theaters), Jaws 3-D was retitled Jaws 3 for home video, where the lack of visual effects left audiences with a flat and often laughable viewing experience. Critics weren't kind then either, and the movie hasn't exactly earned a loyal following. In a 2010 rewatch, two former EW critics dubbed it a "big bucket of chum." One recalled, "They're underwater in a sunken ship and suddenly a big fake rubber shark is knocking repeatedly into the walls." The other critic added, "And with all the speed and grace of a four-year-old in a bathtub jamming a plastic shark into a plastic ship. Also, they have the shark swimming backwards, which it biologically can't do, and it roars. It roars! Not as dramatic a roar as in Jaws: The Revenge, mind you, but still, it's still a shark roaring underwater." Where to watch Jaws 3-D: Netflix Jaws: The Revenge (1987) Released on July 17, 1987, Jaws: The Revenge sank almost immediately, taking a critical and commercial beating. Beyond the abysmal reviews, it had a worldwide gross of $51.9 million against a $23 million budget, making it the lowest-grossing entry in the Jaws franchise. Serving as a direct sequel to Jaws 2 (and pretending Jaws 3-D never happened), the film follows a now-widowed Ellen Brody (Gary), who becomes convinced that a great white shark is targeting her family out of revenge. After her youngest son, Sean (Mitchell Anderson), is killed, Ellen flees to the Bahamas to visit her other son, Mike (Lance Guest). There, she strikes up a romance with Hoagie Newcombe (Michael Caine), just as another massive shark appears and threatens her safety. An EW writer bluntly wrote, "The fourth and final Jaws movie is not good. But Michael Caine does drop in to lend it some class. Who cares if his khaki shirt is wet and then mysteriously dry in the same scene? This is not a movie to pick apart with logic. It exists beyond reasoning in a shark-movie universe where the fewer questions that are asked, the better."

Mind-Blowing Facts From The 'Jaws @ 50' Doc
Fifty years ago, THE summer blockbuster and horrifying thriller Jaws broke the surface and was released to the world. This month, National Geographic released the documentary special Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story, giving us an inside look at the film's plagued production that nearly sank the whole project. Here are 23 incredible facts I learned while watching Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story: Director Steven Spielberg thought Jaws would end his career because he was running behind schedule, and he believed no one would ever want to hire him again. Speilberg had no idea what Peter Benchley's "Jaws" was, but when he read it, he fell in love with it, calling the story about the "Leviathan of the sea." Author Peter Benchley caught sharks in Nantucket, which helped inspire the story. But the real question that got his gears turning was asking himself, "What would it be like if a shark stayed in one place?" It took months for Benchley to come up with a title for the book, which included "Terror of the Deep," "Great White," "Leviathan Rising," and many more. Everyone involved was pleased with the word "Jaws," which ultimately became the title. Carl Gottlieb plays the role of reporter "Harry" Meadows in Jaws, and Gottlieb is actually one of the co-writers for the film's screenplay. Joe Alves, who designed the shark, created full-size drawings that had varying sizes of the shark, including a 32-foot shark. Spielberg believed the 32-foot design was pushing it to the point of being too unrealistic and borderline science fiction, so he opted for the 26-foot size, as it was intimidating enough yet also realistic. Speilberg started calling the mechanical shark "Bruce" after his attorney Bruce M. Reimer, but soon after, people working on the shark started calling it "Bruce." It spread like wildfire, and soon the whole world named the great beast "Bruce." Real great white footage was used in the film by intercutting the real footage with the mechanical shark. Spielberg basically asked them to capture what they could from the wild animal, and he would work around it. George Lucas told Spielberg Jaws would be the most successful movie ever made and that it was "obviously" going to be a big hit after he saw the construction of the shark. The original script featured the shark in the opening scene, but the mechanical shark was getting repaired at the time, so Spielberg believed the unseen was much scarier. The effect was also used via ropes jerking her around, making her look like the shark is dragging her, powerless in the water. Only eight people from Hollywood are part of the cast. Meaning a lot of the actors outside of the core are locals from Martha's Vineyard. This gives the movie a more "real" feel, and less like actors on a set. During the death of the little boy Alex Kitner, played by Jeffrey Voorhees, two guys are lifting Voorhees up and down in the water while a blood "cannon" is going off to emulate the shark attack. Benchley's favorite review of Jaws was from Fidel Castro, who said Jaws ("Tiburon" in Spanish) was a "marvelous metaphor about the corruption of capitalism." During the filming of one of the beach panic scenes, a real shark was spotted nearby. Although far enough away, it still shows the legitimate dangers of the waters There was a cut sequence where the man attacked by the shark drags Michael Brody while the "mid-eaten" man is in the shark's mouth. Spielberg cut it and other sequences that felt a little over-the-top, particularly in terms of shark attacks. About 80% of the time, the shark didn't work, due to saltwater messing with the hydraulics. It even came out the wrong way the first time, tail first. Richard Dreyfuss and Robert Shaw sparred a lot on set, much like their characters, and although it worked for the playful banter in the final product, the two men legitimately didn't get along. The night scene in the boat's cabin is Spielberg's favorite scene, and he says he could, objectively, "watch it over and over again." Mention of the USS Indianapolis incident was not included in the book and was added by screenwriter Howard Sackler to motivate the character of Quint. Spielberg had never heard of the incident, but luckily for Sackler's Naval background, the very real story helped build the monologue. Shaw revised the speech slightly to make it more engaging. The "cage attack" scene was shot entirely in a water tank at MGM. Other moments with the mechanical shark, which filmmakers used as inserts, were also filmed in a Hollywood tank, such as the bullets going through the water as the shark passes. Composer John Williams sought a relentless score to characterize the shark and its relentless drive. If you wanted to see the real Bruce up close, the last remaining full-scale mechanical shark can be found on display at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles. And lastly, Spielberg admits he, too, would have voted for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest over Jaws for Best Picture. in 1975. Watch Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story on Hulu.

Richard Dreyfuss skipping SharkCon 2025? Jaws star, 77, shares shocking health update
Richard Dreyfuss will not be attending SharkCon this year due to health-related reasons. The 77-year-old actor, best known for his role in Jaws, shared a health update in a video posted to SharkCon's Instagram over the weekend. Richard Dreyfuss is suffering from bronchitis (AP) 'Hello fellow cons,' Dreyfuss said in the clip, speaking from a hospital bed with a Jaws-themed blanket pulled over him. 'I am very, very sorry to tell you that I've been diagnosed with, viral, er… What is it?' 'Bronchitis,' his wife Svetlana Erokhin answered from off-camera. What happens to someone suffering from bronchitis Bronchitis happens when the airways in the lungs get inflamed and filled with mucus. It can cause symptoms like fever, fatigue, shortness of breath, and a runny nose. Dreyfuss went on to explain, 'I've been told by my doctors I cannot fly and I would have to fly five hours to get there. I'm terribly sorry because I had planned to be there and I had been looking forward to it, but I am unable to do so.' He added, 'I don't want to get anyone else sick and I don't want to get sicker myself.' Richard Dreyfuss suffering from a 'very viral illness' He continued, 'I feel terrible about not showing up and I feel worse about exposing you to this apparently very viral illness. But there will be other times and I will make it my business to show up.' Before signing off, he sent a heartfelt message to fans in Tampa, Florida, 'I want you all to feel very sorry for me, and very sorry for yourselves," he said with a laugh. He added, 'I'm in a lot of pain and that has to come first, my health. I feel very good about having the time and enough health.' His wife then added, 'And such great fans!' Dreyfuss echoed, 'And such great fans.' Erokhin said, 'We love you, we miss you all and we will see you soon.' Dreyfuss confirmed she was the one talking off-camera. 'She's right, she knows how to do this,' he added. 'So good luck, happy health, happy con – bye!' SharkCon talks about refund process SharkCon posted in the caption that all prepaid autographs and photo ops will be refunded automatically. 'There is no reason to reach out. It will take 5-10 business days plus what your bank takes for them to be processed. We are so sorry for any inconvenience. Thank you.' The film recently marked its 50th anniversary with the National Geographic documentary Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story, directed by Laurent Bouzereau. Even at 77, Dreyfuss is still active in Hollywood. He recently appeared in the action thriller Into the Deep and is set to star in an upcoming Marlon Brando biopic alongside Billy Zane.
