The 1993 flick that terrorized a generation will continue its legacy in a fourth installment: Jurassic World.
If all goes according to plan, Jurassic Park fans can watch the next chapter of the epic series when it hits screens on June 12, 2015, in glorious 3D. Director Colin Trevorrow will team up with Steven Spielberg, who will act as producer. Universal tweeted the news along with a photo of the classic logo in silver and blue with the new title.

Fans got their hopes up earlier this year when the studio announced a release date of June 2014. That date was changed to allow more time to create the epic dino flick, which means a longer wait for fans.
Universal reportedly wanted to make sure the movie got enough time to come to full fruition: The Hollywood Reporter previously shared a statement in which Universal explained the date change as an effort to ensure the "best possible version" of the new movie.
But mystery remains about the actual premise of the newest version. Will dinosaurs now roam the entire world, or just the island the original park was on? And another big question: this time, will the humans will learn to stay away from them?
One little clue for hopeful fans: a photo that Trevorrow tweeted back in May, of Isla Nublar. That's the place where it all began.

Here's hoping that the fourth movie will hold on to some of the magic of the original. This might be the 21st century, but the idea of prehistoric dinosaurs roaming the earth still sounds really cool.
