So far this year we鈥檝e seen a few films shift their release dates out of the already overcrowded summer of 2015 鈥撀燘atman vs. Superman聽for instance聽鈥� 聽but the next installment in the聽Jurassic Park聽franchise聽is releasing right in the thick of it on聽June 12th, 2015.
Starring in聽Jurassic World聽is聽Chris Pratt, alongside聽Bryce Dallas Howard,聽Ty Simpkins and Nick Robinson.聽Jurassic World聽will pick up聽22 years after聽the events of聽Jurassic Park聽and be filmed on the聽Hawaiian islands of Oahu and Kauai, which served as the primary filming locations for聽Isla Nublar聽in the first movie.聽
Jurassic World聽will be the first large franchise film for director Colin Trevorrow (Safety Not Guaranteed), but that inexperience does鈥檛 worry Pratt. Speaking with聽MTV News, Pratt praised Trevorrow鈥檚 vision and excitement for the project:
鈥淗e鈥檚 got a great vision for the movie鈥� It鈥檚 awesome that Steven Spielberg is taking a chance on this guy because he鈥檚 got a really clear vision.聽 I sat down with him and it was kind of like with me and ['Guardians of the Galaxy' director] James [Gunn], we just kind of started getting excited about this.鈥�
厂颈苍肠别听Jurassic World聽will be the third sequel in the聽Jurassic Park聽franchise, plenty of fans question why another is needed. (Especially as the last two weren鈥檛 all that well-received.) Pratt says this is something addressed in聽Jurassic World鈥榮 script.
More to the point, the script addresses why anyone would try cloning dinosaurs again considering how badly it turned out the first time:
鈥淲hat I liked about it was it answers the question of 鈥榃hy would you do that?鈥� Like, how do you suspend disbelief to be like, 鈥極h yes, let鈥檚 make this mistake again. We haven鈥檛 learned our lesson about dinosaurs, we should definitely live with them and see how that works out!鈥� after like three tries at it.聽 They answer the question really well through the script.聽 Colin did a great job of writing it and justifying it and in his own way聽having fun聽with that, so anybody who goes in with that question will be really amused 鈥� the way I was 鈥� about how they answer that.鈥�
Whatever the clever reasoning is behind yet another attempt at bringing dinosaurs back from extinction, things will eventually go聽awry. And when they do, it will fall to Pratt鈥檚 鈥�rugged ex-military guy鈥�聽to pick up the pieces.
MTV News聽asked Pratt whether his character will be more like Sam Neill鈥檚 Dr. Grant or Jeff Goldblum鈥檚 Dr. Malcolm, to which he responded:
鈥淗e鈥檚 got a little of both.聽 He鈥檚 got a little bit of the Goldblum cynicism but also the Sam Neill聽excitement聽at the wonder of the biology of it all, so it鈥檚 a combination.鈥�
It鈥檚 disappointing Pratt wasn鈥檛 asked if there were any similarities between his character and Laura Dern鈥檚 Dr.聽Sattler, but that鈥檚 probably because no one could ever equal her steely resolve when it comes to facing down dangerous dinos.
