It's no secret that Universal Pictures has been tugging on our nostalgic heartstrings with every promo for Jurassic World. Last week, we kind of found out why, as Jurassic World's director revealed the film to be a "direct sequel" to Jurassic Park.
Of course, that's not the only reason, I'm sure. The marketing surrounding Jurassic World has been riddled with reminders of the childhood classic that is Jurassic Park — from the piano rendition of the original film's theme to a recreation of an iconic scene with Indominus Rex busting through the glass as it tries to snack on two children.
Point being, we're all familiar with and (probably) enjoyed the original Jurassic Park. The cast of Jurassic World is no different, using a new featurette to explain how the 1993 film influenced them and and impacted their world on Jurassic World.
Also included in the piece is some new footage from Jurassic World, including a more in-depth look at the park's central atrium. Serving as the hub of the theme park, the building is reminiscent of the original, but way more high-tech.
Check out the new featurette below.
