Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow has come forward to shed light on the upcoming sequel, which he say swill be "more suspenseful and scary" than the original.
Thanks to his involvement in Star Wars: Episode IX, Trevorrow isn't directing Jurassic World 2. Instead, horror director Juan Antonio Bayona is helming the film, and according to Trevorrow, he's the perfect fit for the film's darker story. "It will be more suspenseful and scary," Trevorrow told Jurassic Outpost. "I knew I wanted Bayona to direct it long before anyone ever heard that was a possibility, so the whole thing was just built around his skill set."
Even though Trevorrow isn't directing the sequel, he still has a major role in the project as producer and wrote the script with Derek Connolly. With regard to the film's story, Trevorrow said the sequel won't center around the militarization of dinosaurs, a plot point that was set up in the first film. "I'm not that interested in militarized dinosaurs, at least not in practice," he said, noting that it's best served "as the pipe dream of a lunatic" rather than a major focus of the film.
In fact, the idea of militarized dinosaurs was a major story point in an earlier script that was later rewritten by Trevorrow and Connolly. According to Trevorrow, the pair's initial reaction to the idea of Chris Pratt's character Owen Grady pursuing such a thing was, "if anyone’s gonna militarize raptors that’s what the bad guy does, he's insane."
He also addressed the lack of animatronics in the first film, citing "the physicality of the Indominus," as well as its "very fast and fluid" movements as a major reason why the creature wouldn't work without computer-generated effects. That said, fans can expect more practical effects in the sequel, with Trevorrow saying they've "written some opportunities for animatronics" into the script and that Bayona "is all about going practical whenever possible."
Jurassic World 2 will open in theaters on June 22, 2018. Both Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard will return for the sequel, which will serve as the second chapter in a new trilogy.
