Rumor Buster: Jurassic Park 4 not filming at Universal Studios

The internetz were abuzz this weekend when a tourist took a photo of the “Shooting Schedule” posted at Universal Studios and set it to theme park website Behind the Thrills. Under yesterday’s schedule were “Parenthood” and “Desperate Housewives” was a curious listing for JURASSIC PARK 4 on Stages 7, 10, 12 and 14. ZOMG does this mean a JURASSIC PARK 4 is already filming?! Yeah, no.

Universal has confirmed that JURASSIC PARK 4 is not filming on the backlot nor is JURASSIC PARK 4 anywhere near shooting. Last we heard Joe Johnston was attached to direct and he’s quite busy at the moment with CAPTAIN AMERICA. No cast is involved and there’s no crew. Perhaps just some small pre-production meetings every now and again while a script is developed.

So exactly what was the chalkboard? Universal hasn’t commented but it could be a clever Photoshop job or just a goofball tour guide having fun with the turistas. Just know that for better or worse there is no new JURASSIC PARK on the way anytime soon.
