'Jurassic World' News: Director Speaks On Filmmaking Experience and Possible Sequel

A lot of eyes have currently been on director Colin Trevorrow with the imminent release of his 'Jurassic World' film arriving this weekend.

In a recent interview with Screen Rant, the director spoke on the whole experience of making the long awaited spin-off film to the 90's franchise, and what we can expect in terms of further sequels. He also goes on to speak on what it was like working with Steven Spielberg.

Trevorrow, despite rumors, will not be directing the next 'Jurassic World' sequel as he wants to give other directors a chance in the franchise. He explains:

"There are some films that have many many sequels directed by the same director and then there's others like Mission: Impossible and it really benefited I think by having a different director every time they don't feel repetitive. They're always new, they're always fresh and a franchise like that is in danger of becoming repetitive and I think this is similar."

Trevorrow goes on to speak on his lack of studio exec involvement:

"None. Well, I think part of that is because Steven has final cut of the movie. I answer to him for sure and through the screenwriting process, the story development process, we were very closely involved. And yet his notes are never, "Go write a scene that has this in it." It's always, "I don't think this is as good as it can be," "I don't think this is working right, find a different way to do this that accomplishes this," and because he's a writer he knows how to communicate with other creatives in a way that is empowering and doesn't feel like you're just being told what to do. I certainly never felt controlled by anyone over this whole process, I felt supported."

The director closes the interview with answering where he would hypothetically like to see the sequel head:

"I feel like there's been a lot of "controlling things that have escaped" and like this one I feel like it could be a bridge to something else. I'm not sure if we can have a bunch of movies of people running away from dinosaurs, part of what I tried to do and one of the reasons I changed the title - beyond the fact that if you named a theme park "Jurassic Park" after the disaster that had happened it would be a horrible PR mistake - I wanted to create a world in which dinosaurs coexist with humans in the same way that animals do today. You can go to a jungle and they'll say, "Don't go in there. The lions in there will eat you." and I feel like there is so much room for us to expand the definition of what a Jurassic world is and it doesn't necessarily have to be people running away, getting eaten all the time."

'Jurassic World' finds itself in theaters today, June 12.
