"Jurassic World" director Colin Trevorrow, who is co-writing and producing the sequel, indicated that the second installment will be inspired by a line of dialogue in the first Jurassic park movie. He pointed out that he and co-writer Derek Connolly are expanding on a line from Dr. Alan Grant in the 1993 original for "Jurassic World."
Trevorrow said on the Jurassic Cast Podcast through Entertainment Weekly, "As Trevorrow paraphrased, 'Dinosaurs and man, separated by 65 million years of evolution, have been thrown back into the mix together. How can we know what to expect?"
The filmmaker added that the sequel will not be referred to as "Jurassic World 2" and that the film will "get to be a different kind of film."
"I feel like the audience has given us permission, to a certain extent, to take this to the next level," Trevorrow said. "I don't necessarily mean in scale. I feel very strongly that it's not about more dinosaurs or bigger and better dinosaurs. It's about using this as a starting point for a much larger story about our relationship with these animals, and with animals in general, and the dynamic created by bringing them back to life."
According to IGN, Trevorrow initially teased that the sequel might incorporate open-source dinosaur cloning technology.
Meanwhile, with approximately $1.7 billion in global ticket sale, "Jurassic World" is rated the third highest-grossing movie of all time in addition to being the biggest 2015 film.
Trevorrow will not come back to direct the second installment of "Jurassic World" because he has signed on to direct "Star Wars: Episode IX." However, stars Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt will return for the sequel, which is set to be released in summer 2018.
