NBCUniversal, Amblin Entertainment and The LEGO Group have announced an all-new, animated special LEGO Jurassic Park: The Unofficial Retelling, which will debut Tuesday, October 10 exclusively on Peacock. The 22-minute special will be a comedic retelling of Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment’s original 1993 Jurassic Park through the lens of Dr. Ian Malcolm.
From the comfort of his living room and after finding his personal journal, the ever charming and now slightly older Chaos Theory Mathematician Dr. Ian Malcolm retells the tale of what happened that dreadful night at Jurassic Park. As only he can do, Dr. Malcolm finds a way to add his own unique humor and style to bring this harrowing story back to life. A theme park destination filled with living dinosaurs for family and kids to enjoy – what could possibly go wrong? Absolutely everything…just as he had predicted!
