Jurassic World Dominion
05/23/2022 AD released
Jurassic World Dominion premiered in Mexico City on May 23,, and was released in the United States on June 10, 2022, by Universal Pictures.
It received generally negative reviews from critics, who felt that the franchise had run its course. Despite this, the film was a box office success, grossing over $1 billion worldwide, becoming the second-highest-grossing film of 2022 and the third film released in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic to gross over $1 billion.
The sequel to Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018), it is the third and final installment in the Jurassic World trilogy as well as the sixth installment in the Jurassic Park franchise, concluding the storyline of the original Jurassic Park trilogy. The film has an ensemble cast, including Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, Sam Neill, DeWanda Wise, Mamoudou Athie, BD Wong, and Omar Sy. Dern, Goldblum, and Neill reprise their roles from the Jurassic Park trilogy, appearing together for the first time since the 1993 film.
It is set four years after the events of Fallen Kingdom, with dinosaurs now living alongside humans around the world. The film follows Owen Grady and Claire Dearing as they embark on a rescue mission, while Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler rejoin Ian Malcolm to expose a conspiracy by the genomics corporation Biosyn (a onetime rival of the defunct InGen). Planning of the film began in 2014, before the release of the first Jurassic World film in the trilogy. Filming, which began in February 2020, was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Set locations included Canada, England's Pinewood Studios, and the country of Malta. Unlike its two predecessors, Legendary Pictures was not involved in the film's production after the 2019 expiration of its four-year partnership with Universal.
