To our surprise and enthusiastic excitement, it appears the next Jurassic World movie, officially titled Jurassic World Dominion (aka Jurassic World 3) will NOT be the conclusion of the Jurassic franchise we all initially thought!
The exciting news comes from Jurassic World producer Frank Marshall himself, who recently sat down with movie blog Collider to discuss the next Dinosaur sequel! Moreover, Marshall adds that Dominion will actually be kicking off a NEW era of Jurassic Park movies!
When speaking with Collider’s own Christina Radish about the upcoming Epix music documentary Laurel Canyon, producer Frank Marshall affirmed that Jurassic World: Dominion is not being planned as the conclusion of the franchise. “It’s the start of a new era,” he said, after an effusive “no” when asked if Jurassic World 3 was being envisioned as an endpoint. “The dinosaurs are now on the mainland amongst us, and they will be for quite some time, I hope” he added, alluding to future stories set in this “new normal” world where humans have to share the globe alongside dinosaurs
We suspected such an outcome might be the result of the exceedingly profitable Jurassic franchise, it was never truly a believable idea that Universal would simply shelve the property after its sixth installment.
Given what Marshall has explained however it will be interesting to see the story evolve, introducing us to a world where indeed, Dinosaurs rule the world once again. Where will Mankind fall into this new food chain? Will Women inherit the Earth after Dinosaurs eat all Men like Ellie predicted in the first Jurassic Park?! We can't wait to find out.
Production on Jurassic World Dominion remains halted while industries attempt to recover from the Coronavirus pandemic, however as production restarts, we'll be sure to keep you posted on all the latest developments!
