Jurassic Park 3D PosterOne of the most iconic films in recent memory, which launched an enormously successful franchise, Jurassic Park is getting the 3D treatment next year, celebrating the 20th anniversary of Steven Spielberg’s now-classic blockbuster.

The film will be returning to the big screen in three dimensions in the spring, and ahead of tomorrow’s trailer debut, the first poster for the release has debuted on Facebook.

“Universal Pictures will release Steven Spielberg’s groundbreaking masterpiece JURASSIC PARK in 3D on April 5, 2013. With his remastering of the epic into a state-of-the-art 3D format, Spielberg introduces the three-time Academy Award®-winning blockbuster to a new generation of moviegoers and allows longtime fans to experience the world he envisioned in a way that was unimaginable during the film’s original release. Starring Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, Samuel L. Jackson and Richard Attenborough, the film based on the novel by Michael Crichton is produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Gerald R. Molen.”

Spielberg took to the helm with a script from the great Michael Crichton and the now-renowned David Koepp (Spider-Man), of course adapting Crichton’s original novel.

The all-star cast sees Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, and Richard Attenborough in the leads, with Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello starring as Attenborough’s grandchildren.

The blockbuster took home three Oscars back in the early ’90s, and I can’t wait to see it return to the big screen.

Jurassic Park 3D will be hitting cinemas in the UK and US on 5th April, 2013, a date which can’t come fast enough. I was all of three years old when the film was first released, and am very much looking forward to seeing it on the big screen for the first time. For now, here’s the first poster, which you can click through to enlarge, and be sure to come back tomorrow when the trailer lands.
