What's left behind the scenes
- When the project was launched in 1997, immediately after the release of Steve Alten’s book, it was to be handled by Disney, which had purchased the film rights for nearly a million dollars. Over time, Disney lost interest in the project, especially after the release of Warner Bros.’ “Deep Blue Sea” (Renny Harlin, 1999). Disappointed by this turn of events, Alten wrote the screenplay himself and showed it to Nick Nunziata, who in turn passed it on to Guillermo del Toro. Del Toro discussed the project with Lawrence Gordon and Lloyd Levin, who then brought Jan de Bont on board to realize it.
- New Line was so confident in the future success of the film that $80 million was allocated to the project, and its release was scheduled for the summer of 2006. Jan de Bont brought producer Colin Wilson, artist William Sandell, and visual effects specialist John Nelson onto the project. The team began storyboarding and even created a 1.5-meter model of the shark from clay and fiberglass. However, it turned out that the film's budget was relentlessly creeping upwards and could reach $200 million, and New Line began to lose interest. The company ordered the budget to be cut to $125 million, but continued to make new demands of the film. In 2007, the film rights reverted to the novel's author, Steve Alten. Eventually, the rights passed to Warner Bros. and work on the project resumed.
- Before a contract was signed with John Turteltaub, the directing job was offered to Eli Roth, but he preferred to film the thriller “Death Wish”.
