Similar toEpisode VIII , specific plot details for theJurassic Worldsequel are being continue under lock chamber and key at this stage . It is known thatJurassic Worldstars Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt are reprising their roles as Claire and Owen in the nextJurassicadventure , and that Bayona ’s background in horror / thriller moviemaking ( see his acclaimed supernatural horror taleThe Orphanageand tsunami disaster filmThe Impossible ) will be reflected in the sequel . The film is similarly being described as specifically"more suspenseful and scary"than its predecessor byJurassic World 2co - screenwriter Colin Trevorrow ( who also co - wrote / directedJurassic World ) .
Varietyis reporting that Toby Jones and Rafe Spall are presently signing on for roles inJurassic World 2 , joining Howard and Pratt as member of the film ’s principal cast . The outlet also reports that testing for two additional"key"roles in the sequel is now getting underway , but does n’t enlarge beyond that .

It ’s plausible that neither Nick Robinson nor Ty Simpkins will reprise theirJurassic Worldroles in a significant capability in the subsequence , for related reason . The unseasoned actor ' characters ( Zach and Gray ) chiefly served to advanceClaire ’s graphic symbol arc in the firstJurassic World ; now that they have fulfil that purpose , there ’s a sane chance that theJurassic Worldsequel will featured a dissimilar pair of underage characters , rather . TheJurassic Parkfranchise has a tradition of changing up its kid doer for each instalment , so that may yet continue withJurassic World 2 . Those two key part being test now might even be for another pair of youngsters who end up having to bleed for their lives from dinosaur in the nextJurassicmovie .
