Jurassic World broke records this year when it became the third highest grossing film of all time thanks to its massive box office take of $1.6 billion. So, it's no surprise that a sequel was greenlit, but it actually looks like Colin Trevorrow and Steven Spielberg had a trilogy planned from the beginning... and Universal Pictures didn't even know!

Universal Pictures Chairman, Donna Langley recently participated in a studio chief roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter, and shed some light on the studios' plans for the Jurassic World franchise: "There’s no reason why we should [have trouble]. Colin Trevorrow is busy working on an outline. He’s been working with Steven [Spielberg]. And they have an idea for the next two movies actually. It was designed as a trilogy, unbeknown to us. It’s a happy surprise."
