To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Jaws, The Daily Jaws Podcast welcomes actor, writer, and devoted fan Jack Quaid for a lively conversation about the film that sparked his love of cinema.
Jack is best known for his breakout role in The Boys, as well as appearances in Oppenheimer, Scream (2022), The Hunger Games, and Star Trek: Lower Decks. The son of actors Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan, Jack has carved out his own creative path—rooted in sincerity, humour, and deep respect for the craft. And like many of us, that path begins with a great white shark off the coast of Amity.
Jack speaks with The Daily Jaws founder Ross about his deep affection for Spielberg’s 1975 masterpiece, calling it his “favourite of all time.” They discuss the power of suggestion in filmmaking, the brilliance of practical effects, and how Jaws shaped Jack’s own creative instincts. He shares what it was like seeing the film on the big screen, nerds out over camera moves, and explains why the story continues to haunt and inspire.
And just when he thinks it’s safe to sit down for a podcast, a surprise guest crashes the interview to lay down the law.
