Jurassic World - First Trailer

I don't really know what I was expecting, but this isn't it. The CGI is just painful to look at.

First images from Jurassic World

We still have a year of waiting to do for Jurassic World, but we have our first images of the film. They aren't revealing in any way and don't feature any dinosaurs,  but we get our first glimpse at the setting and some of the cast.

Jurassic World takes place 22-years after the events of the first film in a fully functioning park on Isla Nublar. It will apparently feature new dinosaurs genetically engineered by park scientists.

Jurassic World is set for theaters on June 12, 2015. It stars Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Ty Simpkins, Judy Greer, Omar Sy, and Vincent D'Onofrio.

Chris Pratt rumored for Jurassic World

I guess being cast in a Marvel movie is a pretty good thing to happen to you. Chris Pratt is apparently being sought after for a lead role in Jurassic World. Pratt will be seen in Guardians of the Galaxy next year and can be seen this month in Delivery Man with Vince Vaughn. He is also a series regular on Parks and Recreation.

Previously Josh Brolin had entered talks for a lead role, but the project moved on without finalizing anything. The official cast members we have at the moment are Bryce Dallas Howard, Ty Simpkins, and Nick Robinson. Jurassic World opens June 12, 2015.

Bryce Dallas Howard in talks for Jurassic World

Word on the internets is that Bryce Dallas Howard is in negotiations for a lead role in Colin Trevorrow's Jurassic World (aka, Jurassic Park 4). Rumor has it Howard met with Universal alongside David Oyelowo (The Butler) when the release date was pushed from 2014 to June 12, 2015.
Howard has made a slight shift from acting to directing short films, but she has most recently been seen in The Help and 50/50. You also may recognize her from Terminator: Salvation and as Victoria in The Twilight Saga. She is also Ron Howard's daughter, but that isn't the important thing here.

There are currently no plot details for Jurassic World, but it evidently will return to Isla Nubar.

Jurassic Park 4 officially titled Jurassic World

We can start referring to the fourth installment of Jurassic Park as Jurassic World and, of course, it will be filmed and released in 3D.

We also have a release date of June 12, 2015. Yes, another 2015 release date for the summertime. Currently it is the only film scheduled for that weekend, but I'm sure that will change. Soon after Jurassic World we will have Assassin's Creed and Inside Out.
Jurassic World is set to enter production early next year and will have Colin Trevorrow in the director's chair.


Personally, I don't really like the title too much. It feels like what they would call a new land at Universal Studios. *shrug*

Jurassic Park 4 aiming for 2015 release

I guess the indefinite postponement Universal put on Jurassic Park 4 didn't stick too well. Word is out that they are aiming for a 2015 3D release for the film that will be directed by Colin Trevorrow (Safety Not Guaranteed). Steven Spielberg is on the case to meet with Trevorrow and the producers to read the script and go over some more details before the film officially enters production.

This was seen at the 2013 Licensing Expo in Las Vegas (via ComingSoon.net).

Jurassic Park 4 will share the 2015 release year with The Avengers 2, Pirates of the Caribbean 5, Star Wars Episode VII, Snow White and the Huntsman 2, Avatar 2, Prometheus 2, Fantastic Four, Assassin's Creed, Ant-Man, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2, and Finding Dory. Those are just a few major movies scheduled for 2015.

Is Jurassic Park 4 a reboot? Maybe.

This whole thing is starting to get a bit flaky. Jurassic Park 4 has been put on an indefinite hold by Universal for now and producer Frank Marshall assured Collider that the film is a fourth installation and not a reboot. However, Sam Neill has something else to day about the project.
He told the Dominion Post that he didn't think he was going to be part of the fourth Jurassic Park film due to the fact that he was told it is "a bit reboot, a total re-jig." Whether this is true or a classic case of Hollywood miscommunication, this is a valid point to raise.

The thing that makes this a little more suspect is the fact that the indefinite hold has been put on Jurassic Park 4. Are they waiting for enough time to pass so a reboot would be better or were there enough problems on Universal's timetable that they had to postpone it? Only time will tell.

Just saying, if they reboot Jurassic Park I will not see it. The idea of that is absurd.
