‘Jurassic Park’ Animated LEGO Special Coming to Peacock for the Film’s 30th Anniversary [Poster]
The Peacock streaming service has taken to Twitter today to tease an upcoming Jurassic Park x LEGO project, an animated special that’s being described as “the unofficial retelling.”
Peacock tweets, “An animated special 65 million bricks in the making. Coming soon.”
Check out the official poster art for the Jurassic Park LEGO special below.
We don’t have any further information on the special at this time, but we assume it’s a “remake” of the original Steven Spielberg classic that was put together using LEGO animation.
This is hardly the first time the Jurassic franchise has collided with the LEGO brand, as various LEGO sets, games, and animated projects have been released over the years.
Jurassic Park just celebrated its 30th anniversary with a theatrical re-release in RealD 3D, which scared up $1.7 million at the box office for Universal this past weekend.

“I’m the Grim Reaper” – Sam Raimi Teams with ’10 Cloverfield Lane’ Writers on Gory, Funny Webtoon Adaptation
The Wattpad/Webtoons and Grave Weaver-created series “I’m the Grim Reaper” is nearing its 200th episode, and it’s also getting a new TV series adaptation with talented names behind it. Deadline reports that celebrated filmmaker Sam Raimi is teaming up with 10 Cloverfield Lane scribes Josh Campbell & Matt Stuecken on the new series.
The series follows “Scarlet, a young woman who wakes up in the ninth circle of hell with no idea how she got there. Satan offers to send Scarlet back to Earth if she’ll work as his reaper. But it doesn’t take long for Scarlet to realize that Satan’s offer is even worse than she feared.”
The story is said to fit perfectly into “Raimi’s wheelhouse, striking a deft balance between scares, gore and humor.”
Sam Raimi and Zainab Azizi will executive produce the series with Weaver, who’ll also team on the development process. Raimi may be most known for his Spider-Man and Evil Dead movies, but the filmmaker has been busy behind the scenes producing. More recently, Raimi produced this week’s action brawler Boy Kills World and last year’s 65, with Don’t Move on the way.
The “I’m the Grim Reaper” webtoon launched in 2019, delving into the humor and horrors of reaping souls in Hell. That it’s on the cusp of airing its 200th episode means no shortage of story and mythology for Campbell and Stuecken to pull from.
Stay tuned for additional details on this new series as they arrive.
