Jaws 50th Anniversary 4K Blu-ray Steelbook Includes a New Documentary

Back in 2020, Jaws arrived on 4K UHD Blu-ray for its 45th anniversary. If you don’t already own it or you’re a collector, you’ll want to pick up the Limited Edition Steelbook (4K UHD + Blu-ray and Digital) version that’s coming out for the 50th anniversary. In addition to new artwork on the case, the release will include the never-before-seen documentary, Jaws @ 50: The Definiitive Inside Story from National Geographic and Steven Spielberg which promises “a brand-new look at the making and legacy of the film”.

A full breakdown of the new documentary and bonus content (which clocks in at over 5 hours) can be found below. Pre-orders for the Limited Edition Steelbook are available here on Amazon now. A standard Jaws 50th anniversary 4K Blu-ray is also available to pre-order here on Amazon. You can find both here at Walmart as well. Both will arrive on your doorstep June 17th.

Speaking of the 50th anniversary, The Jaws Little People Collector set was recently launched to celebrate the milestone. It will feature the three main “shark-hunters” from the movie: police chief Martin Brody, oceanographer Matt Hooper and veteran seaman Quint, all looking uncharacteristically adorable in classic Little People style. The Jaws Little People Collector set is listed here on Amazon priced at $19.99, though the first wave of figures sold out quickly. Keep tabs on that link for a restock.
