Jurassic Park 4 Talk? Bring on the Dinos!
For better or worse, we love the Jurassic Park films. The first one is an absolute classic, the second one is … well … the second one, and the third is a guilty pleasure monster movie. So as you can imagine, talk of a fourth entry brought a big smile to our faces.
AICN caught up with Joe Johnston, director of Part III (and the new Wolfman redux), and he dropped the following on them:
“There is a great story for the fourth one that I would be interested in getting involved with, and it’s nothing like the first three,” Johnston told the site. “It sort of takes the franchise off in a completely different direction, which is the only way I would want to get involved.”
He added that it likely won’t be another storyline about a group of people struggling to survive a dinosaur attack. “We’ve done that, and it’s been done three times…”
The site commented that they should stay away from an island setting this time. “Why would anybody go back to that island?” Johnston said. “It was hard enough to figure out the second and third reason for them to go, but it would take it off in a whole other trilogy basically, but when it gets to that level it’s sort of about studios and Steven [Spielberg’s] thing and who knows. I think we are at that point where we are due for another one if we are going to do it.”
There are no official plans at Universal yet, but we can hope!
