TheJurassic Parkfranchise has had its fair share of wild and wacky ideas that almost made it to the screen. A lot of concept art floating around the internet talks about wild concepts like canon-armed human-velociraptor hybrids. However, it seems thatSaltburndirector Emerald Fennell has some wacky ideas of her own for the franchise.
Getting involved with theJurassic Parkfranchise is a lifelong dream of Fennell, and she expects to break some new ground if ever given creative freedom and control over the franchise. While speaking to Deadline Hollywood, she directly revealed what exactly was her plan for such a film.

Emerald Fennell wants to write a domestic drama between Man and Dinosaur
Fennell’s vision for her blockbuster dinosaur film in theJurassic Parkuniverse strays off the beaten path by quite a margin. Speaking toDeadline, the actor-director revealed what her plans for the franchise would entail:
“But my favorite film of all time is Jurassic Park, so I would love to get in on the dinosaurs. Well, first and foremost, it’s very erotic. I think humans and dinosaurs have gotten to that stage in their time together where things are starting to get quite thrilling. So, there’s a marriage between a man and a velociraptor and it’s basically a domestic drama.”
Fennell’s understanding it the universe is a stark departure from how films in the franchise have been approached.Jurassic Park, as a franchise, first and foremost, is a horror franchise, with its core ideas debating man’s place in the natural world, spatially and temporally. The idea might not seem as wacky given the mixing of human and dinosaur DNA has been a subject that has been played with in pre-production, but it has never really matured as a drama set. If this were ever to be applied to another horror franchise, it would be like seeing a family drama where the main couple is a Yautja and a Xenomorph.

Weird concepts are no stranger toJurassic Park
Jurassic Park 3had the dream sequence where Allan Grant finds himself in the presence of a talking Velociraptor on a plane. While this is one concept that made it to the screen that fans found a little hard to digest, there have been plenty of ideas and fanart floating around from pre-production that hints at a much bolder and wackier franchise than the one we have become accustomed to.
Of course, there is the aforementioned infamous human-dinosaur hybrid that was slated to make an appearance in a version of theJurassic Worldscript, then simply titledJurassic Park 4. There was also the arm canon. On a less weird note, a version of this script expected Owen’s character to have already trained Velociraptors for military purposes by the beginning of the first Jurassic World film, rather than being vehemently against it, as was portrayed.
