Video: The Full 'Jurassic World' Trailer Has Finally Dropped
Guys, the Jurassic World trailer has finally arrived—and two days early! Even though Universal Pictures teased us with a measly 15-second promo earlier this week and promised a full trailer on Thanksgiving, they decided to drop the nearly three-minute trailer today.
In the fourth installment of the Jurassic Park franchise, Isla Nublar is now a dinosaur theme park attraction in the same vein as SeaWorld—and scientists decide to play God. They create a highly-intelligent, hybrid dinosaur that ends up having the ability to "kill anything that moves." Of course.
Chris Pratt, looking extra fit and donning a leather vest, says in the clip, "You just went and made a new dinosaur? Probably not a good idea." And then he rides in his motorcycle along running velociraptors, which only makes the child in us get giddy and whisper under our breath, "Dinosaurs are so cool."
Jurassic World is scheduled to be released in theaters on June 12, 2015.
