Jurassic World: Dominion, a film 65 million years (and a few sequels) in the making

The final chapter of the Jurassic World trilogy and the 6th Jurassic film has a name. Jurassic World: Dominion, directed by Colin Trevorrow will hit theaters on 11th June 2021 and is destined to be the biggest film of the summer. Powered by ILM VFX, a Skywalker Sound audioscape and Michael Giacchino crafting a score based on John Williams iconic (and criminally not Oscar-awarded) themes it will bring an end to the current trilogy and bring back the stars of the 1993 original including the Oscar winning Admiral Holdo herself, Laura Dern.

Here’s where we first met our heroes in Jurassic World back in 2015.

The story continued in 2018 with Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.

And now Dominion, with a look at the clapperboard as the production got underway last week.

Then a look at the chairs on set, lovingly replicating the 1993 original logo.

To remind you of where the world lies at the time of Dominion, here’s Battle at Big Rock, which highlights the state of a world where humans and dinosaurs have to coexist.

Why the fascination with Jurassic World here on Fantha Tracks? There are numerous connective threads between Star Wars and Jurassic, quite apart from Spielberg (ever present throughout the Star Wars story and a contributor to Utapau scenes in Revenge of the Sith) and John Williams. Not only did George Lucas oversee post-production on Jurassic Park, giving Spielberg time to leave Hawaii and journey to Europe to film Schindler’s List, but the technology that brought the T-Rex to life in Jurassic was a monumental moment in VFX history when Lucas knew the prequel trilogy could be made and reportedly he cried with joy. Without Jurassic Park with its 55 digital effects shots and the digital backlot developed on Young Indiana JonesThe Phantom Menace and its 2000 digital shots and the current era of visual effects would look very different indeed.
