Will ‘Jurassic Park’ Reopen For Business?
It was recently announced to everyone’s immediate shock that Safety Not Guaranteed‘s Colin Trevorrow would be helming Jurassic Park IV for Universal Pictures and Steven Spielberg.
Story details have yet to be confirmed, although it has been teased that the the film, in theaters June 13, 2014, could be about the government who has trained dinosaurs to carry weapons and use them for battle purposes. Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver penned the screenplay.
While casting is deep underway, Trevorrow is off location scouting, while simultaneously teasing his Twitter followers. The above/below image was shared Thursday with the caption “Nublar,” better known as the island that John Hammond’s Jurassic Park is built on.
I’ve always wanted them to address Spielberg’s shot in the 1993 adaptation where Dennis Nedry drops his shaving cream container loaded with the DNA of all the dinosaurs. Could this be part of the military extraction, and how they obtain the necessary DNA to create uber-dinos?

Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?
The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.
THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”
You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.
The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.
More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
