Trevorrow recently did a candid interview with the Jurassic Cast Podcast during which he revealed some juicy details on the upcoming installment of the new beloved dinosaur franchise, and it will apparently have words Jurassic Park written all over it.
“Honestly, the trilogy is articulated in Jurassic Park, it’s all in there. Jurassic World is all based on Ian Malcolm’s quote, ‘You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you wanna sell it.’ That to me is Jurassic World, that’s why I had all the product placement, that’s what it was,” said the writer, and continued:
“The second one, Jurassic World 2, and as we were driving we tried to find, what is the foundation? ‘Dinosaurs and man, separated by 65 million years of evolution have been thrown back into the mix together. How can we know what to expect?”
Trevorrow also said that this upcoming script will allow him to mix it up a little bit and take the whole Jurassic World to another level.
“It will get to be a different kind of film. The audience has given us permission to a certain extent to take this to the next level, and I don’t necessarily mean in scale, I feel very strongly that it’s not about more dinosaurs or bigger and better dinosaurs, it’s about using this as a starting point for a much larger story about our relationship with these animals and about animals in general and the dynamic created by bringing them back to life.”
The proper director is still to be found, however, the release date for “Jurassic World 2” is already scheduled for June 8, 2018.
