'Jurassic World 2' plot rumors: Sequel to be a 'different kind of film'

"Jurassic World" director Colin Trevorrow has one major plan for the sequel of the Chris Pratt-led blockbuster film — to take it "to the next level." During a Jurassic Cast Podcast (check it out below), the filmmaker revealed that his bigger approach on "Jurassic World 2" will make it feel like "a different kind of film." 

There won't be bigger dinosaurs involved, though. Owen and Claire will be back for a new full-size adventure, but Trevorrow plans to explore further the relationship between animals and humans and give viewers an image or idea of what it would be like. 

"I feel very strongly that it's not about more dinosaurs or bigger and better dinosaurs. It's about using this as a starting point for a much larger story about our relationship with these animals, and with animals in general, and the dynamic created by bringing them back to life," the filmmaker said. 

Trevorrow, who will not direct "Jurassic World 2" but will co-write and produce it, said that they are working on building the sequel around a line said by palaeontologist Dr. Alan Grant in the "Jurassic Park" movies, where the trilogy reboot is solely founded, as he revealed in the podcast. 

The filmmaker reiterated the said line, "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 also revealed that the first film was based on a line by mathematician Ian Malcolm about "product placement." 

As for Claire and Owen, who are played by Bryce Dallas Howard and Pratt, respectively, he teased that the fans will see the former evolving and growing as the trilogy progresses while the latter continues to get himself in and out of dinosaur-related troubles and incidents. 

"Jurassic World 2" will not be called that way but Trevorrow did not hint at what the title could be in the said podcast. The sequel is scheduled for release on June 22, 2018.
