The director of Jurassic World 3 has said that the movie will fall into the “science thriller” sub-genre.
Colin Trevorrow, who is returning to direct Jurassic World 3 after being the man who sat in the director’s chair for Jurassic World, has commented on how the Jurassic films should be categorised.
With Jurassic Word: Fallen Kingdom soon to be upon us, which Trevorrow played a part in writing, he spoke to Entertainment Weekly about how the third film separates itself from the rest:
“If I could contextualize each film, I would say Jurassic World was an action adventure, Fallen Kingdom is kind of a horror suspense film, and Jurassic World 3 will be a science thriller in the same way that Jurassic Park was.”
Many fans might be thinking to themselves after hearing those comments that Jurassic World was actually pretty close tonally to Jurassic Park so it’s interesting that Trevorrow makes a distinction. And we will just have to wait and see if the director’s labels seem applicable regarding the second and third movies.
