"Jurassic World 2" recently signed up "Penny Dreadful" director JA Bayona and gave cause for uproar with the Jurassic Outpost site tease. Anticipations have good cause as "Jurassic World 2" will be in for some risky business, including the possibility of international warfare.
Although the first series in the "Jurassic" franchise was a trilogy, "Jurassic World" developing into a three-film package deal had been a surprise for its producers. Steven Spielberg and "Jurassic World" director Colin Trevorrow sat together to develop the trilogy outline assuring cohesiveness for the remaining films.
Colin Trevorrow handing the reins over to JA Bayona for "Jurassic World 2" in favor of "Star Wars" Episode 9 could only be a good thing for the hit dinosaur offering. Scified says that Trevorrow admitted that he foresees Bayona taking huge risks necessary for "Jurassic World 2."

"A franchise must evolve or perish," Trevorrow said. This hints strongly of how far removed from the original "Jurassic Park" the next two films can be expected.
Proud to collaborate with one of my favorite filmmakers on the next Jurassic adventure. JA Bayona, it's all yours. — Colin Trevorrow (@colintrevorrow) April 18, 2016
According to Digital Spy, "Jurassic World 2" could very well focus on warfare. Already "Jurassic World 2" is expected to transition the storyline from multi-million dollar adventure parks that go caput onto "real world" scenarios.
Trevorrow said this will involve making the InGen technology available to a less exclusive market in "Jurassic World 2." "What if there are 15 different entities around the world who can make a dinosaur?" Trevorrow described.

If these 15 entities come from warring factions across the globe, "Jurassic World 2" may become an introduction of dinosaur force in international warfare. Will China, Russia, Turkey among others have their own versions of militarised dinosaurs?
Certainly Vincent D'Onofrio's character Vic Hoskins will figure heavily as dinosaurs become military weapons in "Jurassic World 2." More interesting to see would be what other parts of the world can develop with such technology.
"Jurassic World 2" will be released in theaters in 2018. Chris Pratt and Bryce Howard Dallas will continue with key roles in "Jurassic World 2."
