Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill are all returning for the third installment of 'Jurassic World'.
Although Jeff Goldblum had a small role in 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom', the original trio cast of Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern and Sam Neill haven't been together since 1993's 'Jurassic Park'.
However, it's been confirmed that all three are now set to return for the as-yet-untitled 'Jurassic World 3', releasing in 2021. The plot details are light at the minute, but essentially, the gist is that dinosaurs are now roaming free across the US after a dinosaur auction at the end of 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' went horribly wrong.

Laura Dern had a small cameo in 'Jurassic Park 3', where Sam Neill reprised his role from the first one. Speaking at a screening last night, director Colin Trevorrow mentioned that all three actors will have bigger roles - not just cameos like in 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'.
The reveal came about when Trevorrow was asked at the Q&A if any of the original cast were returning. Confirming the news, Trevorrow then introduced Laura Dern to a stunned audience, who apparently didn't even know that there was a big news reveal happening at the screening.
Here's footage from when it was announced.
