Tales From The Box Office: Jurassic World Is The Most Successful Legacy Sequel Ever

SlashFilm - Sat, 2022-06-11 08:00

This weekend sees "Jurassic World Dominion" rolling into theaters, which means the franchise is reaching something that feels at least a little bit like a conclusion. While producer Frank Marshall has very much made it clear that Universal intends to make more movies after this, the sixth entry in the "Jurassic" franchise is being billed as the end of a journey that started way back in 1993 with Steven Spielberg's original blockbuster classic.
