Steven Spielberg’s Jaws starring Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, and Richard Dreyfuss celebrates its 45th Anniversary this summer. And today we hear that it’s heading to 4K Blu-ray this June.
Universal Entertainment tweeted the announcement of the film’s 45th-anniversary release, but then quickly deleted it. Luckily our buddies over at ComicBook.com got the deets before it was pulled. They revealed the new set will include a 4K disc, Blu-ray, and digital copy, plus lenticular packaging and a 44-page collectible booklet.
