Jurassic World (also known as Jurassic Park IV) is an upcoming 2015 American science fiction adventure film directed by Colin Trevorrow. It is the fourth installment in the Jurassic Park film series. The screenplay was co-written by Trevorrow, Derek Connolly, Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver. The film stars Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Vincent D’Onofrio, Ty Simpkins, Nick Robinson, Irrfan Khan, and B. D. Wong. Wong is the only actor from any of the previous films to appear in Jurassic World.
A fourth film was initially intended to begin production in 2004 for a summer 2005 release, but endured over a decade of “development hell” as scheduled release dates were pushed back several times while the script went through revisions. Steven Spielberg, director of the first two Jurassic Park films, acts as executive producer as he did for the third film Jurassic Park III. Thomas Tull also acts as an executive producer;[4] his production company, Legendary Pictures, funded approximately 20 percent of the film’s budget.[5] The film was produced by Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley, and is scheduled to be released on June 12, 2015 in North America, by Universal Pictures. It is the second film to take place on Isla Nublar, as the previous two films took place on Isla Sorna.
