The fourth installment, opening June 12, 2015, is the subject of many rumors and Trevorrow spoke to IGN to address a few things, namely who – if anyone from Jurassic Park – is coming back.
I know a lot of fans want to see the original characters back. They’re iconic. But I respect those actors too much to shoehorn them into this story for my own sentimental reasons. Jurassic Park isn’t about the bad luck of three people who keep getting thrown into the same situation. The only reason they’d go back to that island is if the screenwriters contrived a reason for them to go. But there is a character from the first film who makes sense in our world. This hasn’t been announced yet, but BD Wong will be returning as Dr. Henry Wu. He had a much larger role in the original novel, he was the engineer of this breakthrough in de-extinction. He spent two decades living in Hammond’s shadow, underappreciated. We think there’s more to his story.
Trevorrow describes his film as having an “old soul.” For more on this and more on Chris Pratt’s character, follow this link!
