Jaws 50th Anniversary 4K Release Includes all new Behind the Scenes Documentary

Universal Pictures have announced a new 4K Ultra HD release of Jaws for its 50th anniversary, which includes new SteelBook art and a never before seen documentary.

The father of the modern blockbuster, Jaws, turns 50 this year (and it still whips a lot of ass). To help celebrate the milestone, Universal is giving the iconic film another physical re-release, with some extra/new goodies included for fans.

This Combo Pack features the never-before-seen documentary, JAWS @ 50: THE DEFINITIVE INSIDE STORY, a brand-new look at the making and legacy of the film directed by Laurent Bouzereau and from National Geographic, in partnership with Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Documentaries, Nedland Media, and Wendy Benchley. The disc and digital include over five hours of bonus features with an inside look at the making of the film, deleted scenes, original on-set footage, and much more! JAWS will also be available in an all-new limited edition SteelBook with never-before-seen artwork.

 

When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town’s chief of police (Roy Scheider), a young marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) embark on a desperate quest to destroy the beast before it strikes again. Featuring an unforgettable score that evokes pure terror, JAWS remains one of the most influential and gripping adventures in motion picture history.
