Carmichael has a working history with Trevorrow andJurassicfranchise grandaddySteven Spielberg. In 2016, she was hired to write and direct the filmPowerhouse, with Spielberg and Trevorrow producing. Regarding Carmichael andPowerhouse, Trevorrow said:
“Emily Carmichael is the next great writer-director of the kind of movies I love…Her ability to find warmth and humanity in genre storytelling is a superpower in itself.”
Carmichael also has a writing credit on the upcomingPacific Rim: Uprising.Varietyconfirms Carmichael and Trevorrow will work from a story by Trevorrow andDerek Connolly. Trevorrow and Connolly handled writing duties onJurassic Worldand the upcomingJurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. Trevorrow directedJurassic World, whileJurassic World: Fallen Kingdomis helmed byJ.A. Bayona.
“It’s important to this franchise that we welcome new creative voices to keep our storytelling fresh and alive,” Trevorrow said in a statement. “I’m thrilled with the tension and beauty J.A. has brought to ‘Fallen Kingdom, and I know Emily will add another layer of emotion to the concluding chapter of our trilogy.”
After harsh fan reaction toJurassic World(which nonetheless made serious bank at the box office), “new creative voices” are exactly what the franchise needs.
Fallen Kingdom Leads Into Jurassic World 3
Trevorrow spoke in the past aboutJurassic World: Fallen Kingdomsetting upJurassic World 3:
“I knew where I wanted it to go. I remember telling Steven [Spielberg] even while we were making the first movie, “This is the beginning. Here is the middle. And here’s the end of the end. This is where we want to go. I feel like that kind of design is crucial to a franchise like this if you really want to bring people along with you and verify they stay interested. It needs to be thought through on that level. It can’t be arbitrary, especially if we want to turn this into a character-based franchise with people who you lean in to follow what they’re going to do.”
Trevorrow then added:
“At the end of [Fallen Kingdom] it’s not a cliffhanger, but it’s designed for people to want to know what’s going to happen next, whereas the earlier Jurassic Park movies had pretty clear definitive endings. They were much more episodic. In working with Derek Connolly, my co-writer, we were also thinking about where it was gonna go in the future.”
