Filmmaker Colin Trevorrow kickstarted the Jurassic World franchise with a retread of Jurassic Park , where dinosaurs escape from a theme park to wreak havoc. The end of the second Jurassic World movie seemingly sets dinos and humans up for an even more horrifying collision course, as the giant prehistoric monsters reach the US mainland and humanity prepares to deal with the threat. In a recent interview, Trevorrow hinted that the conclusion of the series in Jurassic World Dominion will be more peaceful than expected as the world learns to co-exist with dinosaurs instead of eliminating them. "It seems like so long ago to me. It's been decades [since the franchise began], hasn't it? What's changed for me is -- from the beginning, I knew that the mission and the reason why I felt like there was a story worth telling, is that we could expand the story to a place where it was about humans having to coexist with dinosaurs on the planet, in the same way that we do with animals … [Read more...] about Jurassic World 3 Director Breaks Down Dominion Evolution and Its Inevitable Ending

In Conversation: Sophia Loren And Frank Langella, Two Titans Of Screen And Stage, Look Back On Their Predestined Drive To Perform
When Netflix suggested I might like to preside over a conversation between Sophia Loren and Frank Langella , two titans of the screen and stage, it felt churlish to turn the opportunity down. They both appear in films handled by the streamer this year; Loren makes her return to screens after more than a decade away in The Life Ahead , directed by her son Edoardo Ponti, and Frank Langella delivers a blistering turn as Judge Julius Hoffman in Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 . And what to say about two of the most accomplished actors of their generation that hasn’t been better spoken by the many decades of extraordinary work both of them have authored? Frank Langella, of course, made his name in the theater, where he has won no fewer than four Tony Awards for performances in plays by Peter Morgan, Florian Zeller, Edward Albee and Ivan Turgenev. He has brought some of those plays to the screen, notably reprising the roles of Dracula and Richard Nixon in … [Read more...] about In Conversation: Sophia Loren And Frank Langella, Two Titans Of Screen And Stage, Look Back On Their Predestined Drive To Perform
