Jaws: The Remake
Superman Returns director Bryan Singer has always confessed his love for Steven Spielberg's Jaws. He even admits that he's fantasized about doing a sequel/remake (Jaws Returns anyone?), but claims he could never actually be part of such a project.
"I have fantasies about it, especially since lately they've been advertising this shark movie (maybe he meant Shark Week on Discovery?)... at all the bus stops, there are all these shark posters... It's got me in a shark mood... but, no, no," Singer told AICN. "I would never touch JAWS! That's something that's too... No, no, no..."
Singer continued, "I couldn't do it! I could do it! I couldn't do it to Steven! He's my idol!"
But what if Steven asked him to helm said fictional project? I think Singer could make one kick ass remake/sequel. JAWS needs to be brought back so it can be discovered by a whole new generation.
Singer's filmography includes: The Usual Suspects, Apt Pupil, X-Men, X2, and Superman Returns.
JAWS was released in 1975, and became the first movie to reach more than $100 million in domestic box-office receipts. The movie won Academy Awards for Film Editing, Original Score, Sound, and was nominated for best picture.
