Jaws (Shark)

&nbsp

"Jaws" is the unofficial name of the killer great white shark featured in the Jaws novel and movie series that consists of four films as well as the video games Jaws Unleashed and Jaws: Ultimate Predator.

Depiction
==Jaws is a White shark (scientifically called Carcharodon carcharias) that appears in Jaws, Jaws 2, Jaws 3-D and Jaws: the Revenge. The series in fact features the same shark as a different shark in every film although the race is the same. Jaws first appeared in the novel by Peter Benchley before Steven Spielberg adapted it into a motion picture. In the movies the sharks are much larger than the real animal and during the course of the series they show to have a certain amount of intellect. The shark is the playable character in the video game Jaws Unleashed.==

Media appearance
Jaws with the voice of the Southern gay man Bruce in Family Guy.

The Shark often appeared in the Family Guy cartoon series.

In the episode "The Father, the Son, and the Holy Fonz", he stars in Jaws V: Fire Island.

In a DVD exclusive scene in "Play It Again, Brian", he eyes Lois and Brian Griffin after they tell Peter there are no sharks in Martha's Vineyard.

In "Brian Griffin's House of Payne", Jaws appears in Peter's television series Big Jaws, where he and the humans team up to fight the antagonist Big Jaws.

He is voiced by Mike Henry (who played one of Peter's best friends Cleveland Brown) in all appearances. He is one of the many anthropomorphic creatures that uses the voice of Bruce, the very falmboyant Southern gay man also voiced by Mike Henry. Interestingly, "Bruce" was the name given to the mechanical shark prop used in the making of the film
