Falling somewhere in between totally make-believe, fairytale project that doesn’t exist and perhaps now the worst kept secret in Hollywood—at least in the last week (though even this is an exaggerated joke)—it appears that the long-rumored David Lynch project is real, done and probably debuting at the Cannes Film Festival in May. The Cannes lineup announcement is this Thursday, April 14 (super early, 4am ET), and in a very recent Cannes prediction piece, Variety comes closer than anyone so far to confirming the project exists.
Elsa Keslassy International CorrespondentAs the Cannes Film Festival will announce its Official Selection on Thursday, Variety is starting to get a slightly clearer picture of what 75th edition will look like, though fewer titles than usual have leaked. Led by Cannes’ artistic director and general delegate Thierry Fremaux, the selection committee has been flooded with late submissions and is now in the thick of deliberations.Most surprisingly, according to two well-informed sources, there will even be a David Lynch feature film which has been completely off the radar and stars Laura Dern — either as a cameo or a supporting role — along with some other Lynch regulars.We already know the sun-dappled celebration will land several high-profile films from U.S.

Jurassic World Dominion director Colin Trevorrow has compared one particular dinosaur in the film to the Joker.The third part of the Jurassic World series is due to hit cinemas this summer, with stars Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard due to return alongside franchise veterans Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum.The film is also set to introduce Giganotosaurus – or Giga – a real dinosaur that existed, with Trevorrow suggesting that the creature will feel like the DC villain.“I wanted something that felt like the Joker,” he explained to Empire. “It just wants to watch the world burn.”The news comes after Dominion‘s runtime appears to have been confirmed, with the film clocking in at two hours and 26 minutes – 17 minutes longer than its predecessor Fallen Kingdom.The film also recently dropped a trailer, which takes viewers four years after the events of the last film when a neo-Jurassic age was established, with humans becoming prey for dinosaurs.Dominion is set to be the final part of the Jurassic series, Trevorrow telling Entertainment Weekly last year: “To me, [‘Dominion‘] is a culmination of one story that’s been told.“When you got to the end of the Jurassic Park trilogy, it may not have been as clear in what the complete story of those three movies was because they were a bit more episodic in the way that they were approached.
“Jurassic World: Dominion.” At least, if one particular dinosaur has its way.“Dominion” co-writer and director Colin Trevorrow teased the arrival of a new breed of dinosaur in the sequel, the Giganotosaurus, which is known as the “Giga” for short.

Jurassic World Dominion may be the longest entry in the Jurassic franchise.The film, which will be released in UK and US cinemas on June 10, appears to be 17 minutes longer than The Lost World: Jurassic Park, which clocked in at two hours and nine minutes.According to Collider, the third and final film in the Jurassic World collection runs for two hours and 26 minutes, although the runtime hasn’t been officially confirmed.The first trailer for Jurassic World Dominion dropped in February, showing how humans have come to live in fear alongside dinosaurs across the world.In the clip, we see events unfolding four years after the conclusion of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018).

“The Bubble” is not based on the challenging production of “Jurassic World: Dominion” – even though his movie is about a group of actors coming together to make a sequel to a blockbuster franchise about dinosaur-like beasts in London. “It really isn’t based on it at all, other than it seemed fun to do comedic dinosaurs,” Apatow told TheWrap in a recent interview.And yet, when he showed “Jurassic World: Dominion” star Laura Dern his comedy he was relieved that she found it funny.
