Slate: Jurassic Park 4. Is that happening?
Laura Dern: I hear it’s happening. I think it’s got a ways to go. Steven is about to immerse himself in Lincoln, which is really exciting and something he’s poured his heart and soul into for a long time. I’m so excited because Daniel Day-Lewis is playing Lincoln. Once that’s finished, there’s always been talk that my character is deeply involved in [Jurassic Park 4] somehow, but I haven’t heard yet.
In 2007 Laura was asked to return to the role of Ellie, but that was when the movie was project to begin filming in 2008. Obviously that never came about, but Joe Johnston, who directed the third film in the franchise revealed plans of the fourth are slowly coming together. He said that he would be meeting with Steven Spielberg about another
Jurassic Park film, and it would be a spinoff of the original trilogy. While Spielberg has said a few months ago that he would be meeting with writer Mark Protosevich to brainstorm.
