Greg Nicotero - Jaws 50th Anniversary Interview Series
Description
To celebrate 50 years of Jaws, The Daily Jaws Podcast welcomes legendary filmmaker and effects wizard Greg Nicotero—co-founder of KNB EFX, executive producer of The Walking Dead and Creepshow, and a lifelong Jaws superfan.
Greg first saw Jaws on opening weekend in 1975, and it changed everything. In this episode, he talks with Ross about how that single experience sparked a career spanning hundreds of iconic films and series. They discuss the genius of Spielberg’s restraint, the tactile magic of practical effects, and the emotional power of crafting monsters you believe in.
Greg also reveals behind-the-scenes stories from restoring one of the original sharks for the Academy Museum and working on the upcoming Jaws at 50 documentary with Laurent Bouzereau.
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.
