Peacock has released the latest trailer for LEGO Jurassic Park: The Unofficial Retelling ! The special episode will be broadcast on the website on October 10!
Life finds a way – even in the form of LEGO bricks. On Tuesday, Peacock revealed the first trailer for LEGO Jurassic Park: The Unofficial Retelling , an animated special that will recount the events of the original Jurassic Park. The special, which was first announced in late August of this year, will reportedly last approximately 22 minutes, with Jeff Goldblum reprising his role as Ian Malcolm. In this special episode, chaos mathematician Dr. Ian Malcolm, after finding his journal, recalls the mishaps and chaos of 30 years ago on an amusement park island filled with prehistoric dinosaurs that escape and run amok… The story of 65 Million Blocks is in the works!
This isn’t the first time the Jurassic Park franchise has found its way into the LEGO mold – in addition to countless LEGO sets and merchandise, numerous animated TV shows and LEGO specials have continued the narrative of the film series. LEGO Jurassic World: The Secret Exhibit was set before the events of Jurassic World , as was the 13-episode prequel series LEGO Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar . There was also a LEGO Jurassic World video game released shortly after the film’s debut.
Will there be a new film from the Jurassic World series ?
The Jurassic saga essentially ended with last year’s Jurassic World Dominion , which surpassed $1 billion at the global box office. But fans are still wondering whether another feature film is in the cards, and according to Jurassic World and Jurassic World Dominion director Colin Trevorrow, the door is always open for some other addition to the franchise, depending on the circumstances.
I deliberately did something different from other films to change the DNA of the series. The previous five films were all about dinosaurs. It’s a story about heroes in a world where they coexist with dinosaurs. For the franchise to move forward – since it’s inherently unfranchised, there should probably only be one Jurassic Park – but if we’re going to do that, how can I let them tell stories in a world where dinosaurs exist, as opposed to, here’s another reason why are we going to the island?
– Trevorrow revealed in an interview with Empire late last year.
What excites me is if the table was set here for another mind to do what I did with Steven [Spielberg] and sit down and say, Listen, I have an idea. I would love for that person to sit down with me or Steven and just say, I’ve got this!
Trevorrow continued.
As mentioned above, LEGO Jurassic Park: The Unofficial Retelling will be available to stream on Peacock starting Tuesday, October 10.
