Kathleen Turner has accepted the lead role in Jurassic
Park 3, she will be playing T-Rex, just kidding. Turners role in
the film will not be a lead role, more of an important role in the context
of the film. As for rumours of a teaser, these were all false. (DH) (HFA NEWS) |

Kathleen Turner is being considered for a part in Jurassic
Park 3, which will be directed by Joe Johnston. The production of
the film has been moved from New Zealand to the Hawaii island of Maui. When
Johnston was asked about the script and plot he had the following to say,
"The script is being rewritten by William Goldman because of some
minor problems with the plot. You asked me about the plot, and
eh.
All I can say is that it isn´t a prequel to the first movie, but a
new and more independent story which stands alone. Expect more dinosaurs
and more plot!". (DH) (HFA NEWS) |

The Budget for "Jurassic Park 3"
is set at 83 million. Director Joe Johnston (October Sky) is keen on having
some flying Dinosaurs in this film. He has also said of his role as director,
"Steven Spielberg has given me "carthe blanche". He has
said that I shall make my own movie, all though the plot in the movie is
based on idea by Steven. He has strongly pointed out that I shouldn't try
to copy him". Sounds like Spielberg will be phantom directing this
one, which is a nifty segway as they will be using the types of FX used
in Phantom Menace, ahh phantom was a bad segway. (DH) (HFA
