The news thatGareth Edwardswas scooped up by Universal to direct the upcomingJurassic Worldfeature shook the internet just a few days ago . During a Q&A after a recent screening of The Creator hosted by Collider , the filmmaker dished a bit on his young gig in theJurassic franchise .
The announcement come so quickly , he said , he had to rush the spread the news among his own kinfolk . “ I tried my damnedest to contact my florist’s chrysanthemum and tell her before it got on the net , ” he toldCollider , “ and I did the same with my sister . I ignite my baby up to say her . I ’ve pull up stakes a message for my dad , but because of the clock time difference he ’s asleep . So hopefully he wo n’t look on the net when he wakes up . ”
The swiftness of the news caught the entertainment world by surprisal , but it makes sense as Edwards has proven he can step in to helm stories in major franchises with succeeder that include Godzilla and Rogue One : A Star Wars Story . The conclusion to take over the motion picture was an easy one for him . “ I was about to take a break and I bulge out save my next idea for a moving picture and this is the only movie that would make me drop everything like a pit and dive decently in . I fuck Jurassic Park . I think the first movie is a cinematic masterpiece … so this chance is like a dream to me . And to crop with Frank Marshall and Universal and David Koepp , who ’s writing the hand , I think they ’re all legends . So I ’m just very unrestrained . ”

Edwards being recruit seems to be the effective bet come off his recent smash hit experience with The God Almighty . Not much is known about the upcoming Jurassic World film — will it be another sequel or perhaps even a Jurassic Park - era prequel , since Koepp is on board ? Edwards handling a enfranchisement retro movie would make horse sense , since he handle Rogue One to such critical and sports fan acclamation .
