After making a not too shabby $1.6 million at the box office, it was no surprise 2015’s Jurassic World was getting a sequel with the hope of more bang equals more bucks. Jurassic World director, Colin Trevorrow, is busy co-writing the script, but he did give fans a little insight into what they could expect from the next dino-adventure (fingers crossed for more running in heels).
Speaking to Jurassic Outpost podcast Trevorrow said: “I think there’s a real story to be told here, and that’s all really sourced from [Michael] Crichton’s original ideas.”
Trevorrow has passed directing duties to J.A. Bayona in order to helm Star Wars Episode IX went on to praise his predecessor saying “It will be more suspenseful and scary. It's just the way it's designed; it's the way the story plays out. I knew I wanted (JA) Bayona to direct it long before anyone ever heard that was a possibility, so the whole thing was just built around his skill set."

Speaking of the story, according to Trevorrow they’ll be specific dialogue from the original book would be worked into the script. “The thing I love the most about what he introduced is this idea that a mistake made a long time ago just can’t be undone. The minute that they cloned a dinosaur, you can’t put that back in the box. And what could be the ultimate result of that?”
He also claimed the sequel will be focused more on practical effects, but they’ll still be relying on CG when needed: “"There will be animatronics for sure. We'll follow the same general rule as all of the films in the franchise, which is the animatronic dinosaurs are best used when standing still or moving at the hips or the neck. They can't run or perform complex physical actions. And anything beyond that you go to animation and the same rules apply to animation. The same rules applied in Jurassic Park.”
The main reason to return to more of a practical effects film was due to working on the script and it was something Trevorrow and Bayona were looking to do, adding “We’ve written some opportunities for animatronics into this movie because it has to start at the script level and I can definitely tell you that Bayona has the same priorities, he is all about going practical whenever possible.”
Not much is known about Jurassic World 2, apart from Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard will be returning, but Trevorrow hasn’t ruled out the possibility of ‘dinosaur soldiers’ teased at the end of the first film.
