Will it ever happen?

It’s doubtful that a JAWS 5 will ever happen. Universal ran the franchise into the ground in 1987 with JAWS the Revenge, which was a commercial and critical flop. However, it appears that the audience is still there, made up of rabid JAWS fans, action fans, and Shark Week enthusiasts. In recent years, there have been some decent to good shark flicks like Deep Blue Sea and Open Water that did pretty well at the box office. The current trend in Hollywood is the “reboot” of a franchise — successful in some cases: Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and not as successful in others: Superman Returns. One could argue that JAWS wasn’t a franchise anyway, it was all about the original.  Whatever the case, there have been rumors of a JAWS 5 in development at Universal. One plot involves a school of great white sharks, with a story similar to Quint’s tale about the USS Indianapolis.   That could be an interesting film, but does it need to be called JAWS 5?

JAWS 5: Resurface – Fan Made Trailer

JAWS Darkest Waters script

The mysterious “N” started posting installments of his/her JAWS 5 script on the JAWS Discussion Forums. Needless to say, a lot of JAWS fans were excited about this script!

    There can only be ONE movie that could warrant the title “Jaws V” — It’s subtitle would be “The Shark Is Still Working”.

    Not only would it be a fitting tribute to everyone who worked on the movies and those who aren’t with us, but also to the fans, it’s a great documentary and Universal can buy and distribute it on the arthouse circuit — besides, this cycle has been out of action since 1987 and there has been cgi ripoffs for years: this would be the only way to end this properly….

    — and totally reboot EVERYTHING, the way that Ridley Scott is doing this very minute with the “Alien” franchise with an ‘indirect’ prequel “Prometheus”, which is now filming in London.

    i think they should make an remake not a new story stick with the original

  • nappyapple

    I hate when people talk about how good the original is, then go on to say ‘ramake’ or ‘reboot’. If it’s good enough to remake, then the original is good enough to not remake.

    I think the next jaws film should be a cross between the deep blue sea and night of the triffids. A corrupt dictator is close to having the macguffinous power to take over the world when a bunch of freedom fighters/terorists decide to stop him using a plan involving sinking his private island and amongst all this a distant relative of Martin Brody is stranded, trying to escape and save as many people as possible.

    I think it would be amazing if this movie were created! I am a big fan of Jaws, though I was born quite a few years after the first release. I feel that this movie would be epic and I would pay to watch it over and over again. It made me so happy to see that there could even be a possibility of another installment. :razz:

    All I know is we really need a Jaws movie, Jaws 5, a remake, i dont care just something!!!

  • Tomassio

    I’m not too sure whether any new screenplay could do justice to the original Jaws movie. Jaws was a novel idea and emulating that initial success was difficult; 3-D and Revenge highlight the struggle in reproducing the spectacle that was Jaws. However, if it were up to me I believe a prequel could possibly be the best track to follow. What made the original so good was the fact that the shark was not constantly on show. Merely his presence (accompanied with a superb soundtrack) and the remnants of his stalking (the wrecked fishing boat in the original) were what, in my opinion, caused the success. Therefore over the top CGI and SFX would only do harm to the series. However, that said I do believe a subtle, well written screen play could re-kindle the film’s qualities.

    how about that then huh!? its taken years since that did with Michael Caine on The Revenge! maybe then reboot is doable nowadaya with other movies now and next in near future!

  • Jack Jericho

    honestly i would be as giddy as a child if this were too happen, the way to do it justice though, would be to have Spielberg do it. The original JAWS was the film that started his career. I heard that James Cameron might do it, but that retard would ruin it. Plus it would be difficult bringing in Roy Scheider because his character died of a heart attack. Plus in all the JAWS movies, there was no CG whatsoever, and that helped make it awesome. I wouldn’t want to see any of that in a new one.

    Hope they make another Jaws movie. I mean let’s face it Jaws The Revenge was a major flop, along with Jaws 3. If they could make a remake of the first Jaws or Just make a Jaws that doesn’t say Jaws 5 but maybe Jaws ” The Resurface,” or Jaws ” Something else,” I mean come on, Look at The Dark Knight and other awesome movies, I just one hope that someone will hear our cries and make another Jaws movie.

  • roy timmermann

    can i purchase ” the shark is still working”?

  • Lyn

    I have long thought that if another “Jaws” movie were ever made it would need to deal with the purportedly extinct Megalodon shark. Steve Alten tackled the concept in “Meg” and its subsequent sequels. It would be a fun concept and could incorporate Matt Hooper into the premise if so warranted.

  • CJ Jaws

    Someone please hear our cries and make a Jaws 5 or a remake of Jaws!!!! Please????!!!!!!

  • Rollie

  • Rollie
