The “Jurassic” franchise is undergoing some serious transformations surrounding the release of “Jurassic World”, and it’s clear that its producers want to shoot it back into the spotlight with this production. While there was initially some skepticism about the film, as the franchise went a bit weak in its last installments according to some of its fans, the more we’re hearing about the new film, the more it’s starting to sound like the best entry in the series so far.
For one thing, the film is going to directly reference the very first “Jurassic Park”, as viewers will get to see the old park with the original banner still in plain sight. And perhaps more interestingly for some fans, the T-Rex is coming back for this installment! This particular piece of news has been met with a lot of excitement by the film’s fans, as many are eager to see the original beast designed with the help of modern technology and reimagined after all this time.
Colin Trevorrow went into some detail about the T-Rex’s appearance in the new film, claiming that even though she’s 22 years older, she’s not “limping around”. The film’s characters should definitely watch out, as the most menacing dinosaur will be hunting them again. And even though we’ve been hearing reports of new dinosaur designs that are apparently going to be even more impressive and blood-chilling, the T-Rex is still the ultimate name in this franchise and the one that people have learned to recognize and respect.
The dinosaur has been rebuilt from the ground up, according to Trevorrow, mostly due to the fact that technology has changed so much since its first inception. All dinosaurs are getting the same treatment in fact, and the film’s director also revealed that he’s bringing in new species that he’s always wanted to show in a big scene before. For example, fans will see an Ankylosaurus, along with many other well-known (and some not so much) species.
One thing that the director apparently wants to be careful about, is continuing the old trend of introducing dinosaurs to the line-up slowly and steadily. The previous films have always added new dinosaurs in a controlled manner, allowing each of them to get enough screen time and satisfy the fans properly.
Trevorrow wants to take the same approach in his work on this film, so fans should not hope to see a huge number of new dinosaurs making their way to the screen. Still, even a handful would be more than enough if they’re implemented in an interesting enough way and have been designed with enough attention to detail.
