Jurassic World

You mentioned to Ain’t It Cool that there might be a good script.

Did I tell him? Was it me?

You said that there was no way to get people back on the island for a fourth time and have it make sense, but that 2001 was the last installment and we’re due.

Well, there is going to be a Jurassic Park IV. And it’s going to be unlike anything you’ve seen. It breaks away from the first three—it’s essentially the beginning of the second Jurassic Park trilogy. It’s going to be done in a completely different way. That’s pretty much all I can tell you.

A second trilogy?

If you think of the first three as a trilogy, number four would be the beginning of a second trilogy.

That’s big. So not to lock you in, but there’s a possibility there might be a total of six films?

Well, you never know. If they keep working—and if audiences keep going to them—there’s no reason why there wouldn’t be. We just want to make them justified in their own right. We don’t want to make sequel after sequel just because there’s a market for it. We want to tell different, interesting stories. You don’t want to just sell hamburger.

Laura Dern could return in Jurassic Park 4

Oct 8, 2011


Jurassic Park 4 is slowly, but surely seems to be moving forward. Steven Spielberg was last saying the film could be happening in a few years. There’s no way of knowing where the story will go, but Laura Dern revealed that she could be returning in the film. “I hear it’s happening. I think it’s got a ways to go. Steven is about to immerse himself in Lincoln, which is really exciting and something he’s poured his heart and soul into for a long time. I’m so excited because Daniel Day-Lewis is playing Lincoln. Once that’s finished, there’s always been talk that my character is deeply involved in [Jurassic Park 4] somehow, but I haven’t heard yet,” she said to Slate.
Laura Dern had a big role in the original film, and returned in Jurassic Park 3 briefly. It would be great to see her return in a bigger role in the next film.

Could Jurassic Park 4 be a reboot?
Dec 11, 2011

We’ve been hearing that Steven Spielberg is working on Jurassic Park 4, but we don’t know when to expect the film. Fans are also curious as to where the next film would take the story, but Spielberg’s cryptic comments to Shock Til You Drop could indicate that it may be a reboot. “It’s just another boring secret,” he said about whether or not the film will be a reboot. A complete reboot isn’t very likely to happen with this film, but we could see a semi-reboot as the film is said to bring back many of the original characters.

Jurassic Park 4 will hit screens in two years
Producer says new CGI will allow 'great things'

The producer of 'Jurassic Park' has said that the fourth film in the series will arrive within two years.

Frank Marshall, a long-time collaborator with Steven Spielberg, is working on the project right now, after Spielberg announced his plans for another film at last year's Comic-Con event.

“I would say that it will be on the screen within two years,” he said, adding that he was most excited about the advancements in CGI since the last film, 'Jurassic Park 3' which was released in 2001.

“That’s what’s gonna be great about it, technology’s taken a leap now that we can really do some great things.”

IMDB lists 'Captain America: The First Avenger' and 'Jumanji' director Joe Johnston to be helming the project, while its script is being penned by Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, who wrote 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes'.

Spielberg is expected to take a producer's role on the film.
