Campbell Scott Will Play a Returning Original ‘Jurassic Park’ Character in ‘Jurassic World: Dominion’
We already know that several Jurassic Park characters will be returning in Jurassic World: Dominion, including Sam Neill‘s Alan Grant, Laura Dern‘s Ellie Sattler, and Jeff Goldblum‘s Ian Malcolm, and Collider brings us word today that the character Lewis Dodgson will also be back. This time around, however, he’s being played by an entirely different actor.
The site reports that Campbell Scott (“House of Cards”) has been cast to play Lewis Dodgson in Dominion, the character played by Cameron Thor in the original Jurassic Park.
Biosyn researcher Lewis Dodgson, who appears in the 1993 film alongside Wayne Knight’s Dennis Nedry, will be the “CEO of Biosyn Genetics” in Dominion, Collider also reports.
Colin Trevorrow is directing Dominion, with the production currently on hold due to the pandemic. The film’s current release date is June 11, 2021, but that could change.
The cast includes Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Justice Smith, Daniella Pineda, Jake Johnson, Omar Sy, Dichen Lachman, Mamoudou Athie, DeWanda Wise and Scott Haze.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
