Universal Pictures Taps Original “Jurassic Park” Screenwriter for Next “Jurassic World” Movie
In an exciting development, Universal Pictures has enlisted the talents of the original screenwriter for the first two ”Jurassic Park” movies to pen the script for the upcoming installment of the “Jurassic World” franchise. David Koepp, the mastermind behind the 1993 classic and its 1997 sequel, is already well underway with the new script, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. Adding to the anticipation, the movie will be executive produced by none other than Steven Spielberg.
This highly anticipated addition to the franchise, which has raked in billions of dollars for Universal Pictures, is set to usher in a thrilling “new Jurassic era,” according to the report. Interestingly, it appears that fan-favorite actors Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard may not be involved in this installment.

Franchise Mainstay Returns to Produce
Variety has noted that Frank Marshall, a mainstay in the franchise, will be returning to produce the new film alongside his regular producing partner Patrick Crowley.
All three of the previous entries in the Jurassic franchise — ”Jurassic World,” “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,” and “Jurassic World Dominion” — achieved tremendous success at the worldwide box office, collectively grossing nearly $4 billion and surpassing the billion-dollar mark individually.
However, while the first film in the “Jurassic World” trilogy received critical acclaim with a 71% rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the subsequent installments did not fare as well. “Fallen Kingdom” holds a 46% rating, and “Dominion” stands even lower at 29%. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that the audience score for “Dominion” is significantly higher, indicating a divide between critics and general audiences.
