The event will be part of a weekly live show called Watch From Home Theater at IGN in which the site’s personalities are paired with special celebrity guests to have a digital movie night together with fans that will feature many classics.
This Thursday, April 23rd at 5 p.m. PST, IGN is watching Steven Spielberg’s iconic and ultimate thrill ride – Jurassic Park – with original cast member Mazzello, who played Tim Murphy. Since his breakout role as the dinosaur-loving preteen grandson of John Hammond, Mazzello has gone on to star in The Pacific, The Social Network, G.I. Joe: Retaliation and, most recently, as Queen bassist John Deacon in the Academy Award-winning Bohemian Rhapsody.
“While we all continue to sit tight and wait for these scary and uncertain times to eventually be behind us, my favorite way to escape the worry and pass the time has been by watching classic films, and in my completely unbiased opinion, Jurassic Park is one of the all-time greats,” Mazzello said in a statement. “I can’t wait to join together with other fans to celebrate this iconic film and share the stories, insight, and fond and funny memories I collected while playing ‘Tim Murphy.’ It’s gonna be a blast!”
