Get ready to finally see the first trailer forJurassic World: Fallen Kingdomin the very near future. It’s been a long time coming, but it looks like the wait for the firstJurassic World 2trailer is nearly over. For real this time. There have been a few false alarms, but director J.A. Bayona has teased the trailer himself this time. Considering everything we know, it’s all but guaranteed that the first substantial footage from the latest entry in theJurassic Parkfranchise will arrive next week.
During the Thanksgiving holiday, the first footage fromJurassic World 2, officially titledJurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, debuted. It was merely six seconds in length and features Chris Pratt’s Owen Grady playing with a baby velociraptor. But it was more than enough to get fans excited about the potential that exists for the upcoming sequel. Now, director J.A. Bayona took to Twitter to further stir up excitement by posting a familiar, green image from the MPAA that’s shown ahead of trailers. The image came with a simple caption that confirms the wait is almost over.

“Almost there…#FALLENKINGDOM”
It’s expected that Universal wants to have theJurassic World 2trailer out in time to play in theaters withStar Wars: The Last Jedi, which starts preview showings on December 14. They don’t want the trailer to get lost in the flow of theStar Warschatter, so they need to release it online far enough in advance ofThe Last Jedi’s release to give it some breathing room. Plus, a motion poster leaked online last week promising that the trailer was going to arrive on Thursday. It was released early, but it did clue us to the fact that the trailer will drop on a Thursday. All signs point to theJurassic World 2trailer dropping on Thursday, December 7. So Mark your calendars.
