Regular artwork and steelbook with new art that, frankly, isn't that bad -- especially compared to the junk Shout and Vinegar Syndrome usually put out. At least the art design looks consistent with the movie.

Looks like the same set as before overall with the new National Geographic special on the making of the movie.included.

Universal City, California, April 29, 2025 – JAWS made history in 1975, turning a young Steven Spielberg into a household name and boldly establishing the summer blockbuster spectacle that revolutionized the film industry. Winner of three Academy Awards®, including Best Original Score, JAWS has become a global phenomenon, and half a century later, it still holds a grip on audiences around the world. Universal Pictures Home Entertainment celebrates this cinematic milestone with the JAWS 50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION, available on June 17, 2025 in 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray™ and Digital. This Combo Pack features the never-before-seen documentary, JAWS @ 50: THE DEFINITIVE INSIDE STORY, a brand-new look at the making and legacy of the film directed by Laurent Bouzereau and from National Geographic, in partnership with Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Documentaries, Nedland Media, and Wendy Benchley. The disc and digital include over five hours of bonus features with an inside look at the making of the film, deleted scenes, original on-set footage, and much more!

When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town’s chief of police (Roy Scheider), a young marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) embark on a desperate quest to destroy the beast before it strikes again.

If any of you have the digital version, the JAWS @ 50 doc is now available in the special features to watch.

It's listed as "A Laurent Bouzereau Film" :lol:

Here's my review from the 50th Anniversary UHD set:
The extra features are led by JAWS @ 50 (88 mins., 2025), the new documentary from Amblin which covers the movie’s history with a harder emphasis on its cultural impact – giving it a slightly different skewing perspective than the many traditional “Making Of” documentaries that have been produced in the past (two of which are also covered below). George Lucas, Robert Zemeckis, James Cameron, Cameron Crowe, J.J. Abrams, Jordan Peele and Guillermo Del Toro are among those who pay tribute to Spielberg’s classic, with archival news footage, some newly unearthed vintage interviews, new Spielberg comments and even some of the director’s home movies tossed into the mix. Despite the understandable amount of re-told anecdotes, it’s a breezy watch from Amblin doc specialist Laurent Bouzereau, complimenting the other “Jaws” production histories instead of trying to one-up them. (The one odd contributor is Emily Blunt, included here undoubtedly because she’s starring in Spielberg’s upcoming UFO movie).
