It may still be a long time before 'Jurassic World 2' starts development, yet the sequel is already one of the most anticipated films in the next few years. Director Colin Trevorrow has already confirmed that Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are returning as Owen and Claire, but not much is known about the movie.
Colin Trevorrow recently spoke with Jurassic Cast to discuss several exciting new details about 'Jurassic World 2.' The director confirmed that the film will be part of a trilogy.
"We looked at it as a trilogy from the very beginning," Trevorrow said. "We designed the whole thing that way. And, honestly, the whole trilogy is articulated in 'Jurassic Park.' 'Jurassic World' is all based on Ian Malcolm's quote: 'You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you knew what you had, you'd packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox and now you want to sell it.' That, to me, is 'Jurassic World.' That's why I had all the product placement, that's what it was."
Colin Trevorrow continued by explaining what the 'Jurassic World' sequel is about.
"So with 'Jurassic World 2' it's 'dinosaurs and man separated by 65 million years of evolution have been thrown back into the mix together - how can we know what to expect?'" he said. "And that's why it's exciting the movie did well. I had a beginning, a middle and an end and it was designed this way. So now we get to play that out."
The 'Star Wars Episode IX' director also confirmed that the dinosaurs will not be staying in the island.

"We made [Jurassic World] with the fans very much in mind," Trevorrow said. "And I'm not going to forget that, but we've seen a lot of 'dinosaurs chasing people around on an island' movies. And I think you guys and the general audience are going to be down to explore where else we can go."
So what will happen to the characters of Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, who are both confirmed to return in 'Jurassic World 2?'
"Owen is going to be in it, Claire is in it and neither are going to be in the same place we left them in the first movie," Trevorrow said. "And even though Claire is the one who evolves the most over the trilogy, it's her story that mirrors this changing world. Owen has s--t to deal with. They've both opened Pandora's Box in 'Jurassic World' and both of them are responsible for different elements of it."
