In an exciting revelation for fans of the Jurassic franchise, David Koepp, the screenwriter behind the iconic 1993 "Jurassic Park" and the upcoming "Jurassic World Rebirth," has confirmed the inclusion of a long-awaited scene from Michael Crichton's original novel. Speaking to Variety, Koepp shared that he revisited Crichton's novels to reconnect with the essence of the series, especially since "Jurassic World Rebirth" lacks a direct novel source.
Koepp disclosed that he incorporated elements from the novels into the new film, including a specific sequence from the first "Jurassic Park" book that was initially intended for the 1993 movie but was ultimately excluded due to space constraints. "There was a sequence from the first novel that we’d always wanted in the original movie, but didn’t have room for," Koepp explained. "We were like, ‘Hey, we get to use that now.’"
While Koepp kept the details of this sequence under wraps, the news has sparked a flurry of speculation among fans eager to identify which scene will finally make its cinematic debut. This revelation has led to numerous theories about which scenes from the novel might be featured in "Jurassic World Rebirth."
