JURASSIC WORLD Sequel Will Arrive In The U.K. Two Weeks Ahead Of Schedule
It sounds like Universal is taking a page out of Marvel's book for the 2018 sequel to their monster hit Jurassic World as they've just announced that the Steven Spielberg-produced film will release in the United Kingdom two weeks earlier than its U.S. release. Come check it out!
For the first time since 2011, Marvel Studios doesn't have the highest grossing (domestic) film of the summer as this year, Universal's Jurassic World is top dog with a domestic haul of over $636 million and a monstrous worldwide gross of over $1.58 billion, making it not only the biggest film of the year, but also the third biggest film ever! A sequel to the blockbuster was officially announced in late July with both Chris Pratt & Bryce Dallas Howard confirmed to return and Colin Trevorrow & Derek Connolly announced as screenwriters.
Earlier today, Universal Pictures revealed that the upcoming Jurassic World sequel will arrive in the United Kingdom on June 7, 2018; two weeks ahead of its North American release on June 22. This is a deviation to how Jurassic World was released this past June, but somewhat similar to how some other studios tend to release their big budget projects a week or two ahead of schedule overseas before the eventual domestic release.
What do you guys think? Are you ready for more dinosaurs and more Pratt? Sound off with your thoughts below!
Plus, in case you missed it the first time around, Jurassic World will be heading back to IMAX for one week starting August 28th!
Steven Spielberg returns to executive produce the long-awaited next installment of his groundbreaking Jurassic Park series, Jurassic World. Colin Trevorrow directs the epic action-adventure from a screenplay he wrote with Derek Connolly. Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley join the team as producers.
