The second sneak peek at 'Jurassic World' is out, and it introduces an even scarier monster this time round...

Topping off what’s been an awesome seven days for new movie trailers, the second teaser for the forthcoming Jurassic World has been released. A two and a half minute trailer was uploaded to YouTube on Monday morning (April 20th).

Solving the potential problem of how to make something more impressive than a Tyrannosaurus Rex on a cinema screen, the trailer gives us a first look at an even bigger, deadlier beast – the Indominus Rex. Created in a laboratory at the behest of a company to boost the theme park’s attendances… well, you know what’s gonna go wrong there.

Colin Trevorrow says the CGI 'gates' of Jurassic World were for the trailer only and that the real ones will be practical objects.

Colin Trevorrow, the director of the Jurassic Park, has taken to Twitter to respond to some fan's criticism of the first trailer for the dinosaur movie. The first full-length trailer for the new film was released on Tuesday to near universal acclaim, though some hardcore fans of the original film had some picky issues.

One fan complained that the "gate" to the Jurassic World was "ugly" and less realistic then it should have been. Tweeting to Trevorrow, the fan said: "will the JW gate in the movie be CGI or practical? Everything was so seamless in the original."

Chris Pratt Jurassic Park

There's a new "Jurassic World" teaser out. As you were.

Dinosaurs. Dinosaurs! DINOSAAAUUUURS. Yes, the new teaser for Jurassic World probably contained some plot somewhere in there, but who cares about that when you have a heard of majestic raptors running across the screen?


Also, Chris Pratt is pretty majestic himself.

There’s also Chris Pratt’s shocked face, which makes things ten times as majestim IMHO, but that’s another story. The trailer also stars some gates, vaguely evocative of the 1993 original and of course that theme song.

'Jurassic World' Cheat Sheet: Everything You Need To Know, So Far

Director Colin Trevorrow has finally announced details of the film in a spoiler-filled e-mail.

Due for release a whopping fourteen years after its predecessor, the unveiling of the hugely anticipated Jurassic World is finally within our grasp. Overcoming what has been described as a decade of “production hell”, the fourth film in the gargantuan Hollywood blockbuster franchise had until recently managed to keep many of its details under wraps. Yet, as is increasingly common in Hollywood, such attempts were ultimately futile as finer details of the plot were leaked onto various websites.

Such an act has fervently infuriated director Colin Trevorrow, who follows the lineage of both Joe Johnston and the legendary Steven Spielberg in helming the extensive filming and production schedule. The up-and-coming San Franciscan director, whose previous movie credits include only the TV-movie Gary: In Crisis and the low budget time travel adventure Safety Not Guaranteed, has had a sharp introduction to the prying eyes of the Hollywood press. His obvious dismay that elements of the film are known to the public a year before its scheduled release is perfectly understandable.

The Dinos Are Back: 'Jurassic World' Will Hit Theatres June 2015

The fourth instalment of the 'Jurassic Park' franchise: 'Jurassic World,' will be release on 12 June 2015

Jurassic World will bring back dinosaurs to the big screen as the guys behind Jurassic Park have come back for a fourth time to release the exciting follow-up to 2001's Jurassic Park 3. The film has been given the official release date of June 12, 2015.


Steven Spielberg will be returning to produce the film

As the Hollywood Reporter initially reported, Steven Spielberg, who produced and directed the first two films of the dino-resurrecting film, will be returning to only produce this time, alongside Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley. Colin Trevorrow (Safety Not Guaranteed) has been handed the reins to direct and will be working from a script drafted by Derek Connolly and re-worked on by himself.

Is Colin Trevorrow's 'Jurassic Park 4' Facing Extinction?

By Michael West in Movies / TV / Theatre on 09 May 2013

Jurassic Park Steven Spielberg

Jurassic Park 4 has been delayed, though is the project doomed?

Aw, just when Jurassic Park 4 was shaping up to be something potentially interesting, it's been chopped down. As you'll know by now, the movie was left in the capable hands of Safety Not Guaranteed director Colin Trevorrow with a June 13, 2014 release date announced, however, that always seemed ambitious. There was no cast in place, lots of CGI to develop and no filming locations confirmed.

Now, according to Deadline.com, Trevorrow will have plenty more time to work on the movie given Universal have delayed the film's release "in coordination with the filmmakers." It's a little worrying that there's been no later release date announced but the speculation suggests the project definitely isn't dead. The Hollywood Reporter's Borys Kit tweeted that after receiving the first draft two days ago, Universal were presented with a film "way more epic and ambitious than they were prepared for."

Universal don't need us to tell them to stay way clear of summer 2015, given The Avengers 2, Star Wars Episode VII and the new Fantastic Four movie all pencilled in for those couple of months. Add a potential Justice League movie to that mix and Jurassic Park 4 finishes behind all four movies. It almost always spells disaster when movies are pushed back though with Trevorrow still at the helm, there could be something to stick with here.
