Jurassic Park shows no signs of slowing down, even 33 years after its 1993 debut. While the series took a 14-year break following the release of Jurassic Park III (2001), it returned with Jurassic World (2015), which rebranded the franchise and earned $1.671 billion worldwide. Since then, it has continued to produce high-grossing films and other successful media.In short, Jurassic Park has done it all—movies, short films, animated shows, video games, tie-in novels, mobile apps, and theme park attractions. You name it, and Universal Pictures has most certainly slapped it on everything from plastic lunchboxes to rollercoasters and sold it. Well, almost everything. The one territory the franchise has yet to explore is live-action TV.Credit: Universal PicturesA Jurassic Park TV Series?Until recently, the idea of Jurassic Park getting the streaming treatment seemed as impossible as genetically engineering dinosaurs, but with HBO’s Harry Potter now a reality following the newly revealed trailer, it can’t be ruled out. Of course, the wizarding world is hardly the first IP to get the big-to-small-screen conversion (Star Wars, Marvel, etc.), but it remains among the most surprising, largely because the film series is barely in the ground.15 years is hardly brief—that’s how long it would have been since Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 2 (2011) was released in theaters when HBO’s reboot premieres—but the latest Fantastic Beasts film, The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022), would only be four years’ old. The upcoming Harry Potter reimagining certainly feels like a reaction to the weak critical and commercial failings of the last two films in the spinoff series.Related: Universal Officially Ends ‘Jurassic Park’ Series Despite Successful RunThe Jurassic Film Series Is Out of IdeasJurassic Park isn’t experiencing the same problem—at least not financially. Last year’s Jurassic World Rebirth (2025) proved that the franchise still has a lot of bite at the box office, even if it was torn to shreds by longtime fans and critics for its terrible script, underdeveloped characters, mutant dinosaurs, and major retconning of previous entries. Still, the seventh entry in the long-running series proved that Jurassic is creatively bankrupt.What other territory is there left to charter but television?Credit: Universal PicturesRelated: ‘Jurassic Park’ Officially Hitting Reset After ‘Rebirth’ Ruins Film SeriesMichael Crichton’s Books Holds the KeyThe Jurassic Park films are officially out of ideas—dinosaur hybrids, human clones, global threats, mutant abominations, we’ve seen it all. But a reboot similar to HBO’s Harry Potter would make perfect sense. Similarly, it could offer fans a more “faithful adaptation” of Michael Crichton’s original 1990 best-seller which Steven Spielberg’s 1993 is based on.Like the Harry Potter films, there’s plenty of unused material from Crichton’s book that could justify a reboot. Season 1 could be adapted from the first installment, and perhaps the next season could draw from Crichton’s follow-up, The Lost World (1995), which the 1997 film, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, is based on.While many fans would be against the idea of rebooting Jurassic Park (1993), this would simply be another adaptation of the books. The film series could continue while a separate continuity is established on the smaller screen, even if it would mean getting new actors to replace the likes of Sam Neill (Alan Grant), Laura Dern (Ellie Sattler), and Jeff Goldblum (Ian Malcolm). Ideally, though, a TV series would negate the need for more films.Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone premieres on HBO on Christmas 2026.What do you think?
