Another Jaws documentary? This is so much more… Landing in Summer 2027 – an ‘exploration’ of the greatest film of all time by the best minds in film.
July 15, 2026, sees the launch of a groundbreaking new documentary experience from CREATORVC — the award-winning production team behind the critically acclaimed documentary series In Search of Darkness, Aliens Expanded and The Thing Expanded. Setting sail with Spielberg’s classic from 1975, Jaws Explored will take fans and cinephiles on an immersive journey beneath the surface of one of Hollywood’s greatest films. Pre-orders are available exclusively at www.jawsexplored.com from July 15th through August 9th, 2026.
Written and directed by Ian Nathan (Aliens Expanded, The Thing Expanded) and produced by CREATORVC — Jaws Explored will guide viewers through Spielberg’s film moment by precious moment. What will also make the EXPLORED format unique are the fresh perspectives from acclaimed filmmakers, critics, and experts, deepening our relationship with the film.
Jaws has been well served by traditional ‘making-ofs’ and a dedicated fandom over the past 50 years. With a brand new way of looking at the film, this latest documentary dives into influences, decades of appreciation, obsession, and the film’s cultural impact. The result will be an immersive celebration of a genre masterpiece that transcends cinema itself — not what happened but why Jaws still holds onto us and refuses to let go.
Jaws Explored will be made with an ongoing consultation with the worldwide Jaws community. At its core, the ethos of CREATORVC remains: a documentary made by fans, driven by fans, on a subject adored by fans.

I am so excited to be onboard. Time to cast off and head for the deep water.” — Ian Nathan, Writer-director
