Jurassic Park 4
Release Date: 2006

'Jurrasic Park 4' First Draft Of Script Completed
[Wednesday, July 16th, 2003]
Kathleen Kennedy a producer of the Jurassic Park movies talked to SCI FI Wire about Jurassic Park 4, where she revealed that the first draft of the script has been completed by novelist William Monahan,

She also says that the movie will no longer be on an island like the previous movies. "Let's just say it takes place someplace else," she said. "It will not be green. We will not go back to the jungle."

There is no director currently attached to the project. Steven Spielberg and Kennedy will act as producers, with plans for a 2005 release.

65 million years ago, a terrible disease plauged the Earth which brought about the extinction of the dinosaurs. In the early eighties, when InGen cloned the dinosaurs, they also brought this disease back with them and it has been present ever since before Jurassic Park (thus explaining the sick Triceratops and Brachiosaur). Now this disease has become fully active in the dinosaurs and they're all getting very ill. When dinosaur carcasses start washing up on the shore of Costa Rica, a team (including Alan Grant) is called out to find out what's going on. They head to the islands to study the dinosaurs and find out about the disease, known as DX. They also discover the disease is transferable to humans and could possibly bring on our own extinction.

12 years after the first movie, John Hammond's dinosaurs have apparently become urban legend. Most of the public has become skeptical they ever existed. Part of the plot involves the discovery of previously unidentified lizard-like animals showing up on mainland Costa Rica and conflicting with the locals (killing them?). To find out what the heck is going on, a team of experts chart an expedition to one of the off-shore islands. They find out the dinosaurs are thriving and breeding at an uncontrollable rate, so much so that it poses a threat to the nearby continent. They must find a way to curb the spread of the dinos or face an ecological disaster.

I want to make clear that is not the WHOLE story. There is apparently some top-secret aspect of the plot that they refused to even hint to me. They only said that Spielberg was "delighted" with it. In Michael Crichton's novel The Lost World it was discovered that the dinosaurs have been accidentally infected by a disease code-named DX by InGen. Expect this concept to be carried over to JPIV. They don't end up sending in the military to bomb the place, because in time, DX will prevent the dino's continued existence. This leads me to believe JPIV will probably be the last one.

Universal Move Forward With 'Jurassic Park 4'
[Friday, November 8th, 2002]
Universal Pictures is moving forward with a fourth installment of "Jurassic Park," reports Variety

We will again see hapless humans pitted against dinosaurs created from ancient strands of DNA.

Steven Spielberg directed the 1993 "Jurassic Park" and its 1997 sequel, "The Lost World: Jurassic Park." Joe Johnston helmed the most recent edition in 2001. The trio earned a combined $1.9 billion at the worldwide box office.

The next version will be written by William Monahan, who most recently penned "Tripoli," a drama that will be directed by Ridley Scott. Set in the 18th century, the fact-based story follows a U.S. diplomat who joined forces with an exiled king to overthrow the corrupt ruler of a North African nation.


Spielberg Confirms Jurassic Park 4 Plans
[Thursday, June 13th, 2002]
Steven Spielberg says there will be a fourth Jurassic Park film, reports Ananova

Spielberg will not direct the film but will act as its producer, as he did with Jurassic Park 3.

He says he hopes to persuade Joe Johnston, who directed the third film, to take on the new sequel.

"We actually have a wonderful story that I think is the best story since the very first movie. In fact, I wish it were the third story instead of the fourth one," Spielberg tells Starlog.

"It came late, but it is actually the best story I've heard for a dinosaur movie since the Michael Crichton book. And I'm not going to tell you anything about it. My lips are sealed."
