The upcoming "Jurassic World 2" film will draw its inspiration from the original "Jurassic Park" as confirmed by director Colin Trevorrow. Trevorrow will co-write and produce the sequel of "Jurrasic World."
In a recent Jurassic Cast Podcast, Trevorrow revealed that the follow-up movie takes its foundation from the 1993 original, "Jurrasic Park." He also revealed that he was looking for the sequel as a trilogy and they designed it that way.
"Jurassic World is all based on Ian Malcolm's quote," said Trevorrow, referring to the character played by Jeff Goldblum.
"It's, 'You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you knew what you had, you patented it, you packaged it, slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you want to sell it'," he said.
As for "Jurassic 2," Trevorrow said that they will be looking for the foundation: "Dinosaurs and man separated by 65 million years of evolution have been thrown back into the mix together. How can we know what to expect? That's me paraphrasing."
The quote Trevorrow paraphrased refers to Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neil) and his reservations about the validity of cloning extinct species that occupies the Earth even before human exists and "Jurassic World 2" will take its thesis from there, Yahoo! TV reports.
The director also revealed that Chris Patt and Bryce Dallas Howard's characters will return, and the trilogy will still focus on Howard. Aside from talking about the cast, Trevorrow also teased about the film's storyline.
"We made ["Jurassic World"] with the fans very much in mind and I'm not going to forget that. But we've seen a lot of 'dinosaurs chasing people around on an island' movies," he said.
"And I think you guys and the general audience are going to be down to explore where else we can go. Owen is going to be in it, Claire is in it and neither is going to be in the same place we left them in the first movie."
Trevorrow's statement is suggesting that the next film might not happen in the island as what turns to be the usual setting. The sequel will not be called "Jurassic 2" according to Entertainment Weekly and the director hinted that they will be taking it to the next level.
Trevorrow stressed that it's not about more or bigger dinosaurs but they will be using this as a starting point for a much larger story, which may focus on human's relationship to animals in general.
