‘Jurassic World Dominion’ Director Colin Trevorrow Thought Spielberg Classic “Unfranchisable”

Like many fans, Trevor Noah was rather befuddled by the lighting for HBO’s “Game of Thrones” prequel “House of the Dragon.” The series raised eyebrows after a scene in the latest episode was so dark that it was hard for some viewers to distinguish what, exactly, was going on.During Wednesday’s episode of “The Daily Show,” Noah had a few guesses as to why the scene was lit that way, pointing out that it isn’t just “House of the Dragon” that has suffered from this phenomenon.“For real, you guys. Have you guys noticed how this is happening on every single show these days? Everything on TV is so dark. You can’t see anything.

Katie Reul editor “Encanto” swept the 37th annual Imagen Awards, which was held Sunday at Downtown Los Angeles’ La Plaza de Cultura y Artes, but the Disney musical movie was closely matched by several wins from Hulu’s “Love, Victor.” Overall, “Encanto” creators took home the most awards of any nominated project and were recognized for Best Feature Film, Best Music Composition for Film or Television, Best Music Supervision for Film or Television and Best Director – Feature Film, which co-director Charise Castro Smith was not expecting. “I’m pretty sure my mom is never going to live down the fact that I won a best director award when nominated against Stephen Spielberg,” Castro Smith, who is also known for producing “The Haunting of Hill House,” joked with the audience during her acceptance speech. “That’s serious bragging rights for her Zumba class.”

“Jurassic Park” was one of them.Trevorrow, who directed both 2015’s “Jurassic World” and 2022’s “Jurassic World: Dominion,” explained in an interview with Empire that “There probably should have only been one Jurassic Park.”Steven Spielberg launched the franchise with the original movie in 1993. That spawned two more films, “The Lost World” (1997) and “Jurassic Park III” (2001).

Zack Sharf “Jurassic World Dominion” recently crossed the coveted $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office, making it the third consecutive film in the franchise to hit that milestone. Moviegoers around the world seemingly can’t get enough of the “Jurassic” movies, but “Dominion” director Colin Trevorrow recently suggested to Empire magazine that none of the sequels should’ve even been made. In Trevorrow’s own words, the “Jurassic” franchise “probably” should’ve started and ended with Steven Spielberg’s 1993 original. “I specifically did something different than the other films in order to change the DNA of the franchise,” Trevorrow said about “Jurassic World Dominion.” “The previous five films are plots about dinosaurs. This one is a story about characters in a world in which they coexist with dinosaurs.”

“Jurassic World: Dominion” hit theaters this summer as a culmination of sorts for the franchise. For one, it marked an end to the trilogy Colin Trevorrow oversaw since 2015’s “Jurassic World.” But it also brought together “Jurassic Park” characters of old like Sam Neill‘s Alan Grant, Laura Dern‘s Ellie Sattler, and fan-favorite Jeff Goldblum‘s Ian Malcolm to tie up loose ends.

Liza Foreman Murky blue- brown images, bringing to mind a Lorca play developed for today’s premium TV audience, fill the screen in the trailer for “The Gypsy Bride,” from “Penny Dreadful” director Paco Cabezas, which world premiered at the San Sebastián Film Festival. The fiction is produced by ViacomCBS International Studios (VIS), with the participation of Atresmedia Televisión, and in collaboration with Diagonal TV. As well as presenting the first season of the series at the Spanish-speaking world’s highest-profile festival, Cabezas, the show’s creator and director had something else to celebrate on Wednesday. 

The dinosaurs have done it as Universal/Amblin’s Jurassic World Dominion crossed the $1B mark at the global box office with Thursday’s business included. It took a little while, but that shouldn’t diminish that this makes the Colin Trevorrow-directed installment one of only three films to the milestone since the beginning of the pandemic. It is the No. 2 film of 2022 behind Top Gun: Maverick.

Apparently, Bryce Dallas Howard had to deal with a lot more than just getting paid significantly less than her co-star Chris Pratt behind the scenes of the Jurassic World franchise!

Bryce Dallas Howard was told to lose weight for 'Jurassic World'. The 45-year-old actress returned to her role as Claire Dearing for the third time in 'Jurassic World: Dominion' earlier this year but claimed she had been forbidden from using her "natural body" on screen in earlier movies and the same almost happened again until the director Colin Trevorrow intervened. She said: "What being in this third film allowed, how do I say this, how do I say this, how do I say this…[I’ve] been asked to not use my natural body in cinema.

“Jurassic World: Dominion.”The 41-year-old discussed what studio executives told her just before shooting the third film in the “Jurassic World” series.“What being in this third film allowed — how do I say this, how do I say this, how do I say this …[I’ve] been asked to not use my natural body in cinema,” Howard told Metro UK in a recent profile.The “Spider-Man 3” actress then revealed how director Colin Trevorrow stood up for her.She continued: “On the third movie, it was actually because there were so many women cast, it was something that Colin felt very strongly about in terms of protecting me …Because the conversation came up again, ‘We need to ask Bryce to lose weight.’ ”She then noted how the filmmaker defended her and fought back the criticism. “[Trevorrow] was like, ‘There are lots of different kinds of women on this planet and there are lots of different kinds of women in our film.’” The mother of two pointed out that she wouldn’t have been able to do several stunts if she had been dieting.Howard went on, “I’m really thrilled [at] all the action I got to do, and I got to do it with my body.

Is any race for a nomination in this category moot? Has Steven Spielberg already won it for his personal, Hollywood industry-friendly drama “The Fabelmans”? Possibly, but not probably. The Director’s branch of the Academy has become one of the most international of all the branches.

arrivederci the week before that. So, at this point, critics and pundits have viewed just about every Oscar hopeful.There are just two holdovers that could crash the Hollywood hootenanny: “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” out Nov.
