'Jurassic World' Spoilers Confirmed by Director - 'We're Telling a Bold Story'
"Jurassic Park" fans are in for a treat when "Jurassic World" is finally released next summer. Last week a report with details about the storyline leaked to the public, leaving much speculation that has now been ended by director Colin Trevorrow, who confirmed that the leaks are true.
"Jurassic World" will take place 22 years after the original "Jurassic Park" and be set on the same island of Isla Nublar, which is now a successful amusement park, biological preserve, and zoo. It's a true tourist attraction with real dinosaurs that humans can interact with.
"Two things come to the surface," Trevorrow told SlashFilm. "One was that money has been the gasoline in the engine of our biggest mistakes. If there are billions to be made, no one can resist them, even if they know things could end horribly. The other was that our relationship with technology has become so woven into our daily lives, we've become numb to the scientific miracles around us. We take so much for granted."

According to Trevorrow, who was unhappy to release this detail, there will be new species of dinosaurs and crossbreeds for audiences to marvel at. He promised, though, that there is nothing so far-fetched "that Crichton didn't suggest in his novels."
Trevorrow is going big or going home, though. He understands the risk of following in the footsteps left by "Jurassic Park" and is willing to go his own way.
"We're trying to tell a bold new story that doesn't rely on a proven formula," he explained. "I understand the risks of leaving the safe zone. We've all been disappointed by new installments of the stories we love. I have to build something that can take them [new audience] to the same place those earlier films took us."
"Jurassic World" is the fourth installment of the "Jurassic Park" series and will be in theaters on June 12, 2015.
