Jaw Dropping Rumor of the Day: ‘Jaws’ 3D Starring Tracy Morgan?
Ah, nothing like a ridiculous rumor to end the night. Even if proven true, I can’t help by grit my teeth together in distain. Cinema Blend is reporting that Universal Pictures may be planning a remake of the 1975 Spielberg classic Jaws, a rumor that’s appeared pretty much every year since the beginning of the internet. The only thing that makes me think it’s more likely is the newly found love for 3-D. Jaws in 3-D? How can you say no to that? Jaws in 3-D starring Tracy Morgan? That’s how. Cinema Blend’s “insider says Tracy Morgan was at one point being considered for the part of Matt Hooper, previously played by Richard Dreyfuss.” It’s not a matter of IF they’ll remake Jaws, it’s only a matter of WHEN. At least do it right. Thank God this is a rumor.

Keanu Reeves Describes Untitled Time Loop Thriller from Director Tim Miller as ‘Groundhog Day’ With Sharks
At one point known as Shiver, Tim Miller‘s (Deadpool, Terminator: Dark Fate) next movie doesn’t yet have a title, but star Keanu Reeves offers a very intriguing tease this week.
Chatting with Collider, Reeves explains what drew him to the mysterious upcoming project from director Tim Miller. He tells the outlet, “Sharks. Time machine. Groundhog Day.”
That lines up with early plot details that surfaced earlier this year, with the film said to center on a “smuggler in the middle of a deadly double-cross while on a job in the Caribbean Sea.”
That synopsis continued, “Surrounded by bodies, hostile mercenaries, and bloodthirsty sharks, the man finds himself in a time loop and scrambling to break the cycle.”
Callie Cooke (“The Stranger”), Stefan Kapičić (Deadpool), Steven Waddington (Sleepy Hollow), Nicholas Duvernay (“The White Lotus”), Abraham Popoola (Cruella), Anastasia Safonov, and Bobby Holland Hanton (Thor: Love and Thunder) also star.
Ian Shorr (Splinter, Infinite) penned the screenplay for the sci-fi thriller, which had previously been described as having shades of Edge of Tomorrow and The Shallows.
Stay tuned for more on the untitled Warner Bros. project.
