Actress Laura Dern says when Steven Spielberg offered her the role of paleobotanist Dr Ellie Sattler in 1993's 바카라Jurrasic Park바카라, they both were clear about making her an empowering character, a vision that has been carried forward in the new 바카라Jurassic World바카라 trilogy.
Dern became a global star with her portrayal of Sattler in Spielberg's trilogy of 바카라Jurassic Park바카라, 바카라The Lost World: Jurassic Park바카라, and 'Jurassic Park III바카라 alongside Sam Neill's Dr Alan Grant and Jeff Goldblum바카라s Ian Malcolm.
The three actors have reunited for the final film in Colin Trevorrow바카라s 바카라Jurrasic World바카라 trilogy, which she believes has powerful women who are "equal to the men in the story".
"Now we're seeing a lot of movies, and I'm so happy we are. Because of the industry being shamed into considering gender and diversity in storytelling, we are seeing ourselves reflected in the stories, thank God. But what I love is that this franchise, from its beginning, treated females equal to men and it has continued to evolve with powerful women at the helm," Dern told PTI in a virtual interview from Los Angeles.
The 55-year-old actor said during the press tour of the first movie, most of the people would talk about boys loving dinosaurs, but the success of 바카라Jurassic Park바카라, which was based on Michael Crichton's 1990 novel of the same name, changed that perception.
바카라I met a woman last week who told me she's the first female Congresswoman in her area in the United States and Ellie Sattler was her hero because she had never seen women who were equal to the men in a film. That was her first memory of that experience. It really gave her the courage to go into politics. That means so much to me,바카라 the actor said.
In her illustrious career, Dern has featured in critically-acclaimed films like 바카라Rambling Rose바카라, 바카라Wild바카라, 바카라Little Women바카라, 바카라Marriage Story바카라, as well as series 바카라Enlightened바카라, 바카라Big Little Lies바카라 and 바카라Twin Peaks: The Return바카라. She has won all the top awards including Oscar, Golden Globe and Emmy, for her work.
When she was offered a chance to return to the world of dinosaurs, Dern said she wanted to ensure that her character had evolved with times.
바카라In the movie, she has to move forward. She has to evolve as a woman. I love her being an independent single woman, but also in the area of science. She would take her expertise in palaeontology, move towards soil science and focus on climate change. This is exactly what Dr Ellie Sattler would do today. She would figure out a way to avoid another extinction and take care of all of us with the bravery and intellect that she has,바카라 the actor said.
Titled 바카라Jurrasic World: Dominion바카라, the last film in Trevorrow바카라s trilogy also features Bryce Dallas Howard as former Jurassic World park바카라s former manager Claire Dearing, DeWanda Wise as former Air Force pilot Kayla Watts and young actor Isabella Sermon as Maisie Lockwood.
Having spent time with these 바카라amazing바카라 actors, Dern said she realised that the franchise has been on the right track.
"These characters are really in line with what Steven Spielberg intended when we collaborated on who Ellie Sattler would be and it makes me very proud. It made for an amazing time,바카라 she said.
And even though there are a lot of 바카라heroic바카라 men in the movie, like franchise stars Chris Pratt, Neill and Goldblum, Dern joked she would want the women of the film to be by her side in the time of crisis.
바카라We have a lot of safe heroic men in this movie that are amazing, but if I was in trouble I would definitely want those girls on my team,바카라 she quipped.
One of the most versatile actors of her generation, Dern has worked with celebrated filmmakers like David Lynch, Robert Altman, Paul Thomas Anderson, Martha Coolidge, Noah Baumbach, Jennifer Fox and Greta Gerwig.
She credits her parents, actors Bruce Dern and Diane Ladd, for teaching her at a young age to follow 바카라filmmakers with vision바카라.
바카라I am so grateful for my parents who taught me at a very young age to follow filmmakers with vision. If I feel there's a story that must be told, either because it's a unique voice and vision or if it is telling a woman's story with all her flaws and vulnerability, I do it. I feel so grateful. I've been lucky enough to follow filmmakers in that way.바카라
바카라Jurrasic World: Dominion바카라, a follow up to 바카라Jurassic World바카라 and 바카라Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom바카라, is scheduled to be released in India on June 10. The film is backed by Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment.
