The dinosaurs are about to hit the theatres. Before you go, here are some things to prepare you for the Epic Conclusion of the Jurassic Era.
Helmed by Colin Trevorrow, Jurassic Park Dominion is a sci-fi adventure movie. It serves as a direct sequel to the 2018 movie, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and is the sixth installment in the entire Jurassic franchise. It stars several prominent actors such as Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, BD Wong, and guess what, the adventurous trio from the Jurassic Park trilogy! Yes, Sam Neil, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum will be reprising their respective roles. Although it’s been said that the film will conclude the Jurassic saga, Frank Marshall (the producer) stated in a recent interview that Dominion will be the beginning of a “new era”. So hopefully, there will be more sequels in the future. Here’s everything you need to know about the movie before it makes it to the theatres.

Jurassic World marks the longest film in the franchise with a runtime of 2 hours and 23 minutes. Formerly, The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom were the longest Jurassic movies ever, both having a runtime of 2 hours and 9 minutes. Jurassic Park III remains the shortest film in the saga with a runtime of 1 hour and 32 minutes.
What will be the plot of Jurassic World Dominion?
The official plot synopsis for the film reads:
“Dominion takes place four years after Isla Nublar has been destroyed. Dinosaurs now live—and hunt—alongside humans all over the world. This fragile balance will reshape the future and determine, once and for all, whether human beings are to remain the apex predators on a planet they now share with history’s most fearsome creatures.”

It’s gonna be even more adventurous and thrilling this time as now you’ll witness a world where the dinosaurs live among the humans. As the director said at the CinemaCon, “The movie will ask the question, ‘If dinosaurs lived amongst us, would you be safe?’ And the answer is no.” Whether they will live along with the dinosaurs and survive or eliminate their entire species, is yet to be seen. What we know for sure is that the film is going to chill out our bones for sure.
