In a lot of ways, Jurassic Park was kind of an unfranchiseable idea," muses Colin Trevorrow. "It's set in a single place, and people return to this place, time and again, to learn the same lesson. Other franchises have the luxury of, in many cases, characters we've known for decades, and an abundance of stories that can be told either all around the world, or in multiple galaxies or multiverses." He chuckles. "I'm very envious, to be honest."
Trevorrow knows what he's talking about. Having rebooted the Jurassic Park franchise by directing and co-writing Jurassic World in 2015, a full 14 years after Jurassic Park III turned the original trilogy's roar into a whimper with its abrupt conclusion, he co-wrote 2018's Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and is now back on directing and co-writing duties for Jurassic World Dominion. And it turns out he always had an overarching plan. There was a reason this new trilogy swapped out the word 'Park' for 'World' in the titles.
"My desire - and what I felt my job was over the course of three movies - was to try and open things up, and create a different kind of equilibrium, a different dynamic, that maybe new storytellers could come to in the future, and have a little bit more room to play with. A larger sandbox."
