When the first trailer for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom arrived, it got a bit of a mixed reception. For everyone who thought it looked awesome, another wondered whether it was possible for a franchise to jump the shark in a promo. Now a new trailer/expanded Super Bowl Spot has arrived, which shows the movie won’t be totally crazy – although it still looks rather over the top.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘With all of the wonder, adventure and thrills synonymous with one of the most popular and successful franchises in cinema history, this all-new motion-picture event sees the return of favorite characters and dinosaurs—along with new breeds more awe-inspiring and terrifying than ever before. Welcome to Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.
‘Stars Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard return alongside executive producers Steven Spielberg and Colin Trevorrow for Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment’s Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Pratt and Howard are joined by co-stars James Cromwell, Ted Levine, Justice Smith, Geraldine Chaplin, Daniella Pineda, Toby Jones, Rafe Spall, while BD Wong and Jeff Goldblum reprise their roles.
‘Directed by J.A. Bayona (The Impossible), the epic action-adventure is written by Jurassic World’s director, Trevorrow, and its co-writer, Derek Connolly. Producers Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley once again partner with Spielberg and Trevorrow in leading the team of filmmakers for this stunning installment. Belén Atienza joins the team as a producer.’
The movie hits cinemas in June. Take a look at the new trailer below. [Read more…]

I feel that after watching this first trailer for the follow-up to the mega-hit Jurassic World, you may be asking yourself, ‘WTF have I just seen?’ It’s kind of like an explosion of over-the-top-ness. No longer just content with killer dinos, they’ve gone and thrown in an exploding volcano!
It’s very short, but the first footage from Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has arrived online, which shows as Chris Pratt back as Owen Grady, petting a very cute baby raptor. I suppose it’s a good thing Owen still has a good relationship with at least some of the dinos after the dramatic events of Jurassic World!
Ever since it was announced, we’ve known that Jurassic World 2 probably wouldn’t reach cinemas with that name. Now we know what it will be – with shooting coming to an end, its been revealed the film will be known as Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.
While it was clear before Jurassic World was released, that plenty of people were keen for another Jurassic Park movie, but few people expected it to be so successful it would gross $1.6 billion, and become the third highest grossing movie ever worldwide (although it’s since been overtaken by The Force Awakens). It also ensured that another movie would be made, and now shooting on Jurassic World 2 is underway.
It looks like the follow-up to the mega-hit Jurassic World is getting a bit of a British infusion, as Variety reports that Toby Jones and Rafe Spall are in talks to join the movie. While there have been no details about the plot of the movie, as they are both from the UK, it’s difficult not to speculate whether they will be relative of Jurassic Park’s founder, John Hammond, originally played by the late Richard Attenborough.
Liam Neeson is doing something a little different from the Taken and Non-Stop action-fests he’s been best known for in the last few years, as he’s becoming a tree creature with A Monster Calls. J.A. Bayona directs the movie, based on the novel by Patrick Ness.
