Jurassic Park 4 Talk from Johnston

Source:AICN
November 7, 2009


Ain't It Cool News got a chance to talk to The Wolfman director Joe Johnston and the interview briefly turned to the possibility of a Jurassic Park 4. Johnston directed the third film in the franchise, which was released in 2001.

"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."

Universal Pictures has not targeted a release date for a fourth film.

I gotta say i support it, If it's got a good story... That was really the only problem with the 3rd Jurassic park was it was to rushed and a script wasnt even completed production.

I for 1 would love to see Jurassic park 4 in a new direction. So go for it!

But i dont think anyone should diss it until we see or hear more about it. Glad to see there doing something with this franchise.

JP4's new direction: Laura Dern, rumored to be involved for two or so years now, runs a Jurassic Park type zoo on the mainland, carefully preserving the more dangerous species in a pentagon type underground bunker. All goes well until an employee sells a baby raptor as a pet on the black market. It inevitably gets loose and starts ripping apart the other neighborhood kids. Laura Dern fights to stop the beast, everybody involved with the production makes money. (Insert maniacl laugh and hand wringing here)

Jurassic Park 4: A million years in the future, an advanced race of scientifically-resurrected dinosaurs hits upon the idea of scientifically resurrecting the extinct species Homo sapiens sapiens by cloning DNA preserved in an amber-bound mosquito.

I just want to see a DECENT DINOSAUR movie. It has been a while since a good Dinosaur movie has been made.
