A new poster has been released for upcoming movie Jurassic World: Dominion which can be seen below.

Starring among others Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt the movie is directed by Colin Trevorrow and its release date has just been put back by Universal to 10th June 2022.

Nothing is known about the films story yet although original stars Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum are returning to the franchise, so at a guess there could be a strong connection to the original 1993 Steven Spielberg movie Jurassic Park.

Production on the movie has recently wrapped and with well over a year to wait until its released that gives the special effects team plenty of time to get the dinosaurs looking at real as possible.

Check out the movie page for more information on this film.

As a whole host of movies from 2020 move into 2021, the movies scheduled for 2021 start moving into 2022 with Jurassic World: Dominion being moved by a year to June 10th 2022.

The latest in the long running Dinosaur movie series was the first big production to restart in the COVID-19 pandemic and set a standard for what can me done safely.

The movie stars Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt along with the original stars from 1993s Jurassic Park Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum.

With production nearly finished there will be a large post production to all all the special effects then the movie will sit there waiting to be released!

2022 seems a long way off but with no vaccine in sight we could only just be in the safe zone by then.

As is well documents the COVID-19 pandemic and its devastating effect on the world has been the story of the summer, and in fact the year, and it has had the biggest impact on the box office ever.

Cinemas across the globe started closing down in the middle of March and didn't open again in the UK until early July, so the summer box office period of May till early September has been greatly effected.

Most of the Spring and Summer potential blockbusters got their release dates moved, at least once, including Mulan, A Quiet Place Part II, Tenet and Ghostbusters: Afterlife and some of them got a direct to VOD release, including Mulan!

Tenet did finally get a cinema release at the tale end of August and was just about the biggest film of the summer and when the movie theatres finally opened the box office continued where it left off with the Pixar movie Onward still at the top.

What you will also see in the list of top 10 movies for the summer is evidence that movie theatres used old catalogue titles to try and entice movie goers back hence Jurassic Park and Dirty Dancing showing up.

Here is a breakdown of the top 5 film of the summer box office 2020.

Tenet

Christopher Nolan potential big summer blockbuster had its difficulties on its way to the box office but it finally got a release on 28th August and was hailed as the saviour of the cinema.

The movie had a good start to its box office career and took £5.3 Million on its debut and took £10 Million over the Summer period.

In comparison the top film of summer 2019 was the The Lion King remake which took over £71 Million.

Onward

Disney's Pixar movie Onward was the top film on weekend of 13th March when cinemas closed and when they came back it was still the top movie, it has remained in the top 3 for every UK box office since.

Over the summer the movie took was has tuned out to be quite an impressive £1.6 Million.

Unhinged

After the top 2 potential blockbusters we start to get movies which would not have been big movies, but due to the lack of big blockbusters they got a lot of exposure, maybe still not taking as much as they would have done but having good box office runs.

This Russell Crowe movie was the first new movie to get released after the closures and benefitted from that, it has a big star name and got a decent amount of hype and exposure.

The movie took £1.4 Million over the summer period.

100 Wolf

Another movie which has had a decent box office run that would not have without the lack of blockbusters is director Alexs Stadermann likeable animation which took just over a Million pound over the summer.

Trolls World Tour

Perhaps the most controversial movie of the summer, the sequel movie was at the start of the summer the biggest movie to go direct to VOD that would have had a good box office run.

The cinema chains, especially the American company AMC which owns the ODEON chain in the UK objected to this move, this was at a time when the world didn't know how long the closures would last.

Despite the release onto VOD the movie still took a very respectable £745K at the UK box office, this is no where near tens of million it has taken on digital.

1. Tenet - £10,006,540
2. Onward - £1,666,470
3. Unhinged - £1,436,243
4. 100% Wolf - £1,026,699
5. Trolls World Tour - £754,093
6. The New Mutants - £686,407
7. Pinocchio - £685,332
8. Dirty Dancing - £541,863
9. Inception - £432,449
