Is Another Jaws Film In The Works?
Spielberg and Dreyfuss rumored to have discussed it

Over at Dark Horizons an interesting story surfaced yesterday that caught our eye. It seems that there was a 30th anniversary of the original Jaws hosted at Martha's Vineyard last weekend, and a 'Christopher Bell' - who attended the event - reported the following:

In addition, there's talk of a new movie. Benchley said at the workshop that he hears rumors of a new movie all the time, but he's not writing it. "Must be gathering steam because I hear Spielberg and Dreyfuss have discussed it recently...but no, not with me", he laughs. He said they'd probably have the money to make a great looking shark nowadays. NOW this got me excited - Dreyfuss returning for Jaws 5? And Spielberg? But boy, Benchley really should write it I think.

Later, writer Carl Gottlieb apparently told locals that he's heard a Summer 2007 release for a new Jaws. Spielberg was on video before the film's screening and talked about how long the movie's life has been. "I think it's amazing, the shelf life it has had," he said. And finally, we were teased with some of the extras on the JAWS DVD - there's some new scenes we haven't seen before and a new interview with Steven, among other things, it looks good."


We caution that the report about a new Jaws film is only heresay at this point.
