The Daily Jaws

Neil Marshall - Jaws 50th Anniversary Interview Series


Listen Later

In this special 50th anniversary episode of The Daily Jaws podcast, Ross Williams sits down with legendary British filmmaker Neil Marshall, the creative force behind The Descent, Dog Soldiers, and some of the most iconic episodes of Game of Thrones. A master of suspense and horror, Neil dives deep into the cinematic brilliance of Jaws and its lasting influence on his own work.


From seeing Jaws for the first time on UK television to being terrified even with the ad breaks, Neil shares the moments that cemented Spielberg’s masterpiece as one of the greatest films ever made. He reflects on what makes the film timeless—from its flawless direction and unforgettable characters to the primal fear it continues to stir half a century later.


Then, just when Neil thinks it’s safe to be interviewed, a surprise guest crashes the call.


Neil also discusses the shark’s legacy in his own films, his love for practical effects, and what a Jaws film directed by him might look like (hint: it’s at night, and it’s bloody). Plus, Ross and Neil wrestle with the big questions: Did Pippet survive? Was it coffee or coffee ice cream? And seriously—why didn’t they just take Hooper’s boat?
