Jurassic World Dominion Director on Embracing the First Film

Edwards, speaking with Empire Magazine, recently shared his vision for the film, telling the publication, "It goes back to what I loved about the original, with an embarrassment of riches of different set-piece-type scenarios and tense, fun action moments. There were a lot of opportunities as a filmmaker to have a lot of fun and try and play games with the audience."

The upcoming return to the franchise is produced by Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley, with executive producers Steven Spielberg, Denis L. Stewart, and Jim Spencer. The screenplay is penned by David Koepp, who co-wrote the original Jurassic Park.
