Two T-Rexes attacking a car in The Lost World Jurassic Park

Summary There are many differences between The Lost World: Jurassic Park and the book that it is based on, The Lost World. Written by Jurassic Park author Michael Crichton, The Lost World provided a sequel to 1990's Jurassic Park on its publication in 1995. After the critical and commercial success of Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Crichton's first novel, Spielberg's team went after a sequel.

As the face of the BBC's wildlife programming, David Attenborough presented wildlife documentaries that never failed to highlight humanity's devastating impact on nature. Playing profiteer Hammond, who exploited dinosaurs for profit to a disastrous end, Richard Attenborough demonstrated that nature could also have a devastating impact on humanity. This somehow served the endangered species of David Attenborough's documentaries a kind of poetic justice.

Campbell Scott portrayed Dodgson in Jurassic World Dominion, building on the franchise's depiction of Dodgson as a villain. Needless to say, without any source material to go on in this movie, Dodgson appeared quite different from the villain of the novels. However, Dodgson's important role as antagonist in The Lost World was largely assumed by Peter Ludlow.

6 Kelly Malcolm Was Ian's Daughter In The Movie Kelly Was Unrelated To Ian In The Book Close Jeff Goldblum's iconic Ian Malcolm had a daughter named Kelly in The Lost World: Jurassic Park, but didn't in the novel. In Crichton's Lost World, Malcolm ended up being joined on Isla Sorna by two children who stowed away on the boat - Kelly Curtis and R. B. "Arby" Benton. These kids were working as Levine's research assistants in the book.

Julianne Moore's Sarah Harding was a memorable character in The Lost World: Jurassic Park, providing a caring counterpoint to the greed of Ludlow and his team. The romance Moore brought made the movie more commercial than the novel, and her heroics were also a highlight in the movie, as she sedated the T-Rex in San Diego. Harding didn't do this in the novel, as she never went to San Diego.
