With the 2015 soft reboot/sequel ‘Jurassic World’, expectations from audiences were high. We anticipated bigger dinosaurs, larger-than-life characters and full out stunning special effects and for the most part the studio delivered with great aplomb, impressing audiences and making a handsome $652,270,625 total domestic gross in the process. After it’s Goliath success with both critically and financially a sequel was announced quickly succeeding the release of the initial film with Colin Trevorrow producing.
However, Trevorrow has teased that the greatly anticipated sequel will focus less on bigger monster and instead will aim for a “much larger story about our relationship with these animals,”and will tackle themes of animal abuse.
During a speaking event at the Sitges Film Festival in Spain, Trevorrow gave various indications as to what kind of story we can expect from the film.
“The dinosaurs will be a parable of the treatment animals receive today: the abuse, medical experimentation, pets, having wild animals in zoos like prisons, the use the military has made of them, animals as weapons,” Trevorrow explained.
As well as having a more complex story, Trevorrow has also described Jurassic World 2 as being “more suspenseful and scary” and promises that Spanish director J.A. Bayona (The Orphanage) will take the film down new paths.
Jurassic World 2 is set to release on June 22, 2018, with Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard returning in the starring roles.
