Out doing press runs for the second season of Netflix’s Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, Director Colin Trevorrow’s takes a minute to talk about the upcoming sixth film in the Jurassic Park Saga.

Trevorrow led the first Jurassic World film. He returns to direct the third film in the new trilogy, Jurassic World: Dominion. Dominion serves as a conclusion of sorts for the Jurassic World trilogy.

Dominion wrapped shooting in November. Itwas the first major film to shoot with COVID protocols. In an interview with EW, Trevorrow talks about how the third film is an ending for the new trilogy:

“To me, [Dominion] is a culmination of one story that’s been told. When you got to the end of the Jurassic Park trilogy, it may not have been as clear in what the complete story of those three movies was. They were a bit more episodic in the way that they were approached.

But this trilogy is not that way. It’s very much a serialized story.

What was important for me was when you watch Dominion. You really feel like you’re learning how much of a story that first set of movies was and how everything that happened in those movies actually informs what ultimately is able to happen in this.

If kids born today are presented with six Jurassic Park movies – you hope the parents will buy them the box set – you hope they’re going to get to feel like they watch one long story.”

Trevorrow goes on to confirm that Camp Cretaceous is a stand-alone story. The second and third potential seasons will “keep weaving into the larger story and really inform some things even in Dominion”.

Camp Cretaceous season 2 premieres on Netflix on January 22. Jurassic World: Dominion hits theaters June 10.
