JurassicWorldDominion director Colin Trevorrow reveals that his favorite character arc in the film is that of Mamoudou Athie's Ramsay: 'It’s one that I find very relevant to a certain part of our audience.'
Jurassic World Dominion director Colin Trevorrow reveals his favorite character arc in the latest sequel. When 2015's Jurassic World acted as a soft reboot of the Jurassic Park franchise, audiences were introduced to a new slate of heroes, including Chris Pratt's Owen and Bryce Dallas Howard's Claire.
Dominion picks up where Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom left off, depicting a world in which humans now co-exist with dinosaurs. In addition to some threatening new dinosaurs, the latest film also features a duplicitous biotechnology company, BioSyn, run by Lewis Dodgson . The firm employs a host of scientists and tech wizards, including Mamoudou Athie's Ramsay Cole, a new addition to the franchise.
"His arc is my favorite in the movie. It’s one that I find very relevant to a certain part of our audience. It’s about young people who are heading out into the world, and they’re aware that they’re all going to have bosses who are probably going to give them a lot of opportunity but in exchange for not rocking the boat too much. And as a character who’s a whistleblower, he really is a major factor in what happens in this film.
Although more of a supporting character, Ramsay, in addition to helping out Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler when the two are in a bind later in the movie, also clearly represents some grand ideas. Dodgson, who is of an older generation, makes it clear that Ramsay is next in line to run the business and uses that as leverage to attempt to get his subordinate to fall in line and not blow the whistle about the illegal doings at BioSyn.
In many ways, both the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World franchises are about the consequences of corporate greed. Although BioSyn isn't the first corporation in the franchise's history to fall victim to the dubious ambitions of its leader, Jurassic World Dominion is the first film in the franchise to put a pointed generational spin on the idea.
