Fanboys Anonymous

Everybody's favorite new leading man, Chris Pratt is loud and proud about being in the new Jurassic Park sequel. He will play an ex-military officer clashing with a corporate scientist (what happens from there is up to your imagination for now).


While promoting the awesome-looking-I-hope-it's-as-good-as-it-looks The Lego Movie, Pratt explained his excitement for being in Jurassic Park (is there anything better than a fanboy being in his or her dream role?).

“For me, Jurassic Park was really kind of my Star Wars, I lined up at the theatre to see it, I saw it opening night, I saw every sequel, I’ve seen it a whole bunch of times… for me that was my big movie, I think I was 13 or 14 when it came out, and so it’s a big deal for me to be any part of that, let alone this part I’m going to be playing. I’m thrilled about it.”

He continues:

“Everybody around the world knows that franchise. When you say Jurassic Park, no one is like, ‘What’s Jurassic Park?’ More people know Jurassic Park than just about anything. I’m thrilled.”

The movie is going to start filming this spring in Hawaii and comes out June 12th, 2015.

As fanboys and fangirls, do we think they can pull this franchise into a new series? I felt Jurassic Park III was a saving grace after The Lost World really screwed the pooch. Share your thoughts below!
