Jurassic Park 4 "seriously happening", says producer



A fourth entry in the Jurassic Park franchise has been in various stages of development for quite some time now. While the prospect of the film moving forward seemed to dwindle as time went on, there have been some major developments on the Jurassic Park 4 front as of late. Steven Spielberg announced at last year’s Comic-Con that they had a story in mind and hoped to make the film “in two or three years.” Late last month Rise of the Planet of the Apes screenwriters Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver were brought onboard to pen the script, and now we’ve got an update from Spielberg’s longtime producer Frank Marshall.


Steve got the chance to speak with Marshall in anticipation of the release of The Bourne Legacy, and the producer talked a bit about Jurassic Park 4, revealing that they plan on having it in theaters within two years. Hit the jump for more.

lDuring Steve’s interview with Marshall, he asked the producer for a status update on Jurassic Park 4, to which Marshall replied:

“I would say that it will be on the screen within two years.”

Marshall went on to reveal that they’re aiming for a summer release since it’s a “popcorn movie,” and confirmed that it’s definitely a sequel and not a reboot or remake. Spielberg confirmed earlier this year that he won’t be directing Jurassic Park 4, but he’s clearly heavily involved in the development of the film.

That’s not to say that the filmmakers will be completely abandoning the practical effects and prosthetic work that was put to great use in the earlier films. Marshall added that using practical dinosaurs not only feels real to the audience, but aids the actors in their performances.

If they are indeed looking at getting the film in front of screens within two years (which jibes with the timetable Spielberg laid out at last year’s Comic-Con), hopefully we’ll hear word about a director choice soon. There are a number of young, exciting filmmakers working today that could offer a fresh take on the franchise, and I’m eager to see who will take the reins.

I'm really torn on this.

Like I fucking love Jurassic Park but I'm worried about it being a mess like Jurassic Park III which was just terrible.
saffronshire 23rd-Jul-2012 06:12 pm (UTC)
Jurassic III is the reason why I'm excited about it because they can't do worse, at that point.
ialmrnt5 23rd-Jul-2012 06:46 pm (UTC)
whattt?!?! i actually loved that movie, i don't think its like a masterpiece but i remember being obsessed with it for a while when it came out, granted i was pretty young i still re-watch it & love it
amor143x 23rd-Jul-2012 06:54 pm (UTC)
i still think the second one was worse than the third one.
jerriblank 23rd-Jul-2012 07:26 pm (UTC)
i feel the same way, the only good thing i can think of is that at least the third one wasn't as bad as the lost world
lizzyhaldane 23rd-Jul-2012 06:08 pm (UTC)
what the fuck could the plot even BE? oops, we let the dinosaurs escape AGAIN???

/just saw jurassic park for the first time yesterday, couldn't get over how everyone except flawless prince goldblum was an idiot
vehiclesshockme 23rd-Jul-2012 06:10 pm (UTC)
The dinosaurs really only escaped in the first one though (say for the end of Lost World with the T-Rex in San Diego). The dinosaurs on Isla Sorna are completely free roaming.
anus 23rd-Jul-2012 06:14 pm (UTC)
The 3rd one the dude is tricked into going back so they can't do that again either. I have no idea.
hello_samm 23rd-Jul-2012 06:21 pm (UTC)
Michael Crichton didn't write it so who cares.
henryevil 23rd-Jul-2012 06:29 pm (UTC)
I'd personally be interested in a post-apocalyptic movie where dinosaurs have ~taken over~ but Universal prolly wouldn't want to go that route
anna_salem 23rd-Jul-2012 06:52 pm (UTC)
omg that would be sweet. I love apocalyptic shit.

Ah, Ian Malcolm, how I adore thee. I wanted to marry Alan Grant when I was little though.

vehiclesshockme 23rd-Jul-2012 06:13 pm (UTC)
Right? Like I wanted him so bad when that movie came out. I was like seven. I didn't even know what that meant but I wanted him anyway.
sandvich 23rd-Jul-2012 06:22 pm (UTC)
In every movie, lbr.
antique_faery 23rd-Jul-2012 06:51 pm (UTC)
Idk. I love him, but he never did it for me. I always had a thing for Dr. Grant, though. Lmao.

God IKR? I was like 11 when I watched it and I wanted him.
