Jurassic Library has pushed back against those doubts, responding to commenters by writing, “It’s real. We don’t post fakes.”The teaser features a distinctive animation style that combines traditional techniques with computer-generated imagery. The project was overseen by animator Will Meugniot, while artist William Stout helped develop the designs for its characters and dinosaurs.According to JP fan site Jurassic Outpost in 2016, a 23-episode first season had been outlined, although the one-minute pitch film was all that was completed.Credit: Universal PicturesRelated: Upcoming ‘Jurassic Park’ Sequel Will End Long-Running Debate About Original FilmWhat Would Escape from Jurassic Park Have Been About?Rather than telling an entirely new story, Escape from Jurassic Park was intended to continue the events of Steven Spielberg’s 1993 film.The proposed series would have followed John Hammond’s efforts to reopen the park to the public, while rival genetics company BioSyn pursued its own plans involving the dinosaurs.Credit: Universal PicturesDespite the work already invested in the project, the series never received the approval needed to move into production.
