I'm always on the fence when it comes to the Jurassic Park films, should we, or should we not cover them on Bloody-Disgusting? I think mayyyybe? So today the news is slow so here's a little info for you dino-fans. Laura Dern (pictured inside) confirms her return to the franchise as Dr. Ellie Sattler in Jurassic Park IV, thanks to a direct call from Steven Spielberg, according to Collider. She also tells the site that Sam Neill (pictured inside) will not be returning and that they are aiming to shoot the film for a 2008 release. More news as it comes in (maybe)?

NO SAM NEILL!? That is a tragedy. I am also forced to assume that Jeff Goldblum will not be returning either. Nothing against Laura Dern or anything but is it really worth the resurrection of the series just for Dr. Sattler? I dunno, we'll see.

No Dr. Grant means not a good movie. They just need to stop these films, they've all sucked IMO. Maybe in the future someone like Rob Zombie or Eli Roth, someone hardcore will do a remake and finally give the novel justice. Hardcore Jurassic Park, that's what we need. As long as they are trying to get a PG-13, the Jurassic Park films will suck.

Well.. it sucks he isn't coming back.. but it may not be horrible, it all depends on if the story is good enough. The last two were kinda weak in the story area, but I still enjoyed them. This one needs to be huge and needs to put an end to the series.

That's stupid, why wouldn't he come back?? Oh well, i've always liked Jurassic Park and hopefully this will turn out okay with out him, but most likely not, he was the main point besides the dinosaurs... i will keep my fingers crossed, surley it will turn out okay, anyway.

I reckon they should use the entire cast from Jurassic Park 1.... Apart from the cast that got munched. Cause the two kids would be older now as well, would be a good thing to do.

I've thought all three films were good, but no Sam Neil is a let down. I also heard a little while back that when the first Jurassic Park was a huge hit, Universal signed up for six movies. That's a bit much imo, but we shall see.

They should cast Mel Johnson Jr. from Total Recall in this movie.

Ive been waiting for this for a long time, considering the third and last film was a complete letdown. I hated the characters, plot and the dinosaurs looked awful. I hope they make this really gritty and more brutal, the 3rd one was too bright and light so kids could enjoy, while the first two were brutal in the way they portrayed the dinosaurs, and especially the kills, I WANT BLOOD. Bring on a new brutal Jurassic Park!!!
