In what may or may not be the best news you’ll hear today, it’s been confirmed that three icons of the original Jurassic Park movies will be making a return for the next instalment.
According to a report from The Hollywood Reporter and Collider Screenings, Jeff Goldblum, Sam Neill and Laura Dern will ALL be reprising their roles in the roar-some franchise.
Goldbum’s Dr. Ian Malcom, Dern’s Dr. Ellie Sattler and Neill’s Dr. Alan Grant are undoubtedly one of the best things about the OG Jurassic Park, and this is the best news possible for longstanding fans of the series.
The news comes straight out of a screening of Jurassic World over at the Arclight Los Angeles. The screening was attended by Jurassic World 3 director, Colin Trevorrow, who made the announcement to eager crowds.
Trevorrow, along with director Steven Spielberg and producers of the first movie, Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley, will all be joining the project.
So far we know next to nothing about the next Jurassic movie, but with this many pros on board for it, we might just be in the for best Jurassic Park movie since the 1990s…
If you can’t wait to hear more info on the next movie, you can pass the time by turning your home into a dino-friendly resort of your own.
