Today, Jurassic World began filming at approximately 8:20am at the Honolulu Zoo in Hawaii. Many extras were on-scene to get their first taste of the sequel, which has been 65 million years in the making. In the distance, you can spot the Jurassic World logo on a few banners. Thanks to our friends at Reel Tours Hawaii, we have a few on-location photos to share, which can be viewed below:
In addition to the photos, producer Frank Marshall just tweeted a positive announcement, assuring followers that the first shoot (of many) went well:
