Director Steven Spielberg’s legendary ‘first’ blockbuster ‘Jaws’ will return to theaters in August to celebrate its 50th anniversary.

The teaser poster released with the news of the re-release shows people peacefully sunbathing on the beach, while a shark quietly approaches the beach, cutting through the deep, dark sea below.The contrast between the bright, peaceful beach and the increasingly dark sea visually hints at the imminent threat, creating an instinctive sense of tension in the viewer.

Meanwhile, ‘Jaws’, released in 1975, is a monumental work that made the name of director Steven Spielberg, who directed numerous masterpieces such as ‘E.T.’and’ Jurassic Park ‘, widely known around the world, and is also known as the’ first blockbuster’ film.

The film depicts the appearance of a giant great white shark that terrorizes the peaceful resort of Amity Island, the conflicts among the people surrounding it, and the struggles of the characters who go out to the sea to chase the great white shark.In particular, the unique directing that maximizes tension without showing the shark underwater stimulates the imagination of the audience and allows them to experience the psychological fear felt by the characters in the film.
