As the DVD/Blu-Ray of "Jurassic World" gets released this week, actress Bryce Dallas Howard takes time to discuss deleted scenes and what her character, Claire, is expected to do in the movie's sequel.
The actress, who plays the uptight lady boss who runs the Jurassic World theme park, admitted that there were tons of scenes that were cut when the movie was shown over the summer. In fact, one scene was crucial to the character, where it showed Claire covering herself with dinosaur poop.
"I think it's a wish fulfillment of sorts because she starts off this movie being a really rigid woman, and kind of very sterile individual," she said, according to Huffington Post. "Then you see her thrown in the jungle, and what better than seeing a person like that, wearing all white, need to just cover themselves in poop?"
Bryce is definitely coming back for the 2018 run of the second "Jurassic World" feature and said that she has already discussed some of the details with the film's director, Colin Trevorrow. "I have talked to Colin, and he feels very strongly about this character continuing to have a significant arc; there were some terrible calls she made as the person who runs the park, and the result of that are devastating," the actress said.
Bryce also said that Claire's character development has long been discussed while they were filming the first movie and with the announcement of the sequel, many of the questions she has about Claire should be threshed out. According to The Mary Sue, it's possible Claire is going to create a group of "dino wranglers" in the sequel to catch the dinosaurs that were released in the original film.
Meanwhile, actor BD Wong, who played Dr. Henry Wu in the movie, is hoping he gets asked back for the sequel if only to die in the upcoming movie. "That would be perfectly great to me to have a movie death like that on my reel. I would love that. It would be great," he told IGN.
The actor also shared that he has not yet discussed anything with Trevorrow, but assumes that the sequel will involve military power. "In the movie there's talk of using the dinosaurs for military potential. So perhaps that's a place where the story could go. To someone who deciding to use the dinosaurs for military training or something like that," he said.
"Jurassic World 2" opens in theaters in June 2018.
