Sam Neill Celebrates End Of Nigh-Impossible Jurassic World 3 Shoot

Jurassic World: Dominion star Sam Neill celebrates the end of what he calls a "nigh-impossible" production after months of obstacles and delays.

Jurassic World: Dominion star Sam Neill celebrates the end of what he calls a "nigh-impossible" production. The third and final Jurassic World film will see the returns of several major players, even stretching beyond franchise leads Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. Original Jurassic Park stars Neill, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum will be back to help shepherd the story to a close. Plot details are still being kept under wraps, but it's certain Jurassic World 3 will pick up in the aftermath of dinosaurs escaping into the real world.

2020 has been a difficult year for numerous film and television productions, but Jurassic World 3 has suffered more setbacks than normal. Production was first shut down in mid-March when the coronavirus pandemic proved to be a major concern. Jurassic World 3 was then among the first major films to pick back up again in July, and for some time, it looked like it was smooth sailing. Then, Jurassic World 3 was halted one more time when there were only three weeks left due to some positive COVID tests. Finally, production wrapped this past weekend, even despite all the obstacles along the way.

Director Colin Trevorrow commemorated the event on social media, and Neill joined in with a sweet message of his own. Accompanied with Trevorrow's photo of him and fellow cast members DeWanda Wise and Mamoudou Athie, Neill wrote, "There were days we thought we might not make it. But we have...we pulled off what seemed well nigh impossible . Great crew. Lovely cast . Top director. Phew- and CELEBRATIONS." Considering all the setbacks they faced along the way, it's no surprise that Neill and the rest are eager to celebrate their accomplishment.

The many delays caused Jurassic World 3's release to be pushed back from June 2021 to June 2022. That's a much longer wait than fans were anticipating, though it's certain they'll receive more first-look images and teases in the coming months. Anticipation is quite high for Jurassic World 3, and while it's a shame it's still well over a year and a half away, it's nice to know that filming has finally reached its end. The hardest part is over now, and hopefully it won't suffer any further setbacks.

Fans are especially excited to see Neill and the rest of the original Jurassic Park trio return for another adventure. Goldblum previously appeared in 2018's Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, but his role amounted to little more than a quick cameo. However, it's certain Neill, Dern, and Goldblum will have larger roles this time around, which makes this final Jurassic World film all the more thrilling. After months of difficulties, the cast and crew of Jurassic World: Dominion can take a surely much-needed break as they wait for the film's release.
