Jurassic Park Novel Scene Unearthed in 'World' Sequel

Author : Sebastian Update : Feb 23,2025

Jurassic World Dominion incorporates a previously unused scene from Michael Crichton's original Jurassic Park novel, screenwriter David Koepp has confirmed. In an interview with Variety, Koepp, who penned the screenplay for the 1993 film and returned for Dominion, explained that he revisited Crichton's work for inspiration, as Dominion lacks a source novel. This rereading led to the inclusion of a sequence cut from the first film due to time constraints.

Koepp stated, "There was a sequence from the first novel that we’d always wanted in the original movie, but didn’t have room for. We were like, ‘Hey, we get to use that now.’" While he remains tight-lipped about the specific scene, fan speculation is rife.
