Ultimately, Spielberg made the creative decision to have Hammond survive the Jurassic Park movie instead, leaving the door open for him to return in The Lost World.
Based on the Crichton novel, Jurassic Park told the story of eccentric billionaire John Hammond building a theme park filled with cloned dinosaurs.
Jurassic Park was originally released in 1993, but new behind-the-scenes information is still coming out about the Steven Spielberg classic.
Its modern sequels have done even better, with Jurassic World and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom totally obliterating the box office as well.
