Frequently asked about Jurassic World Dominion

Common questions people search for, with answers written by us at MoviesPack.

• Why are the giant locusts engineered to destroy only non-Biosyn crops?▾

  Biosyn's Lewis Dodgson secretly engineered the prehistoric locusts using ancient DNA to devastate global crops that weren't grown from Biosyn seeds, creating a manufactured food crisis that would force farmers worldwide to depend entirely on Biosyn's proprietary seed stock. The scheme was designed to give Biosyn an agricultural monopoly. Dr. Henry Wu ultimately modifies a locust to carry a pathogen that wipes out the swarm before the plan fully succeeds.

• How is Maisie Lockwood connected to the locusts and why does Biosyn want her?▾

  Maisie is a human clone created by her mother Charlotte Lockwood using the same genetic self-replication technique Charlotte later applied to the Velociraptor Blue, allowing Blue to reproduce asexually. Biosyn wants Maisie because her unique genetic makeup holds the key to reversing the locust crisis — specifically, Charlotte's encoded solution to a genetic defect is embedded in Maisie's DNA. Beta, Blue's offspring, is taken alongside Maisie because her DNA carries the same self-replication trait.

• What is the Giganotosaurus and why does it keep appearing throughout the film?▾

  The Giganotosaurus is one of the largest land predators to have ever existed, and Biosyn keeps one in its Dolomites sanctuary. It serves as the film's apex threat, functioning as a recurring antagonist that drives characters toward the climax rather than having a singular dramatic confrontation. The creature is ultimately killed by the Tyrannosaurus rex and the Therizinosaurus working in combination — the T. rex lures it into range of the Therizinosaurus's lethal claws.

• How did Owen and Claire end up raising Maisie, and why does she resent them at the start of the film?▾

  After the fall of Isla Nublar at the end of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Maisie released the dinosaurs into the wild and was taken in by Owen and Claire, who are now living off-grid in the Sierra Nevada mountains to hide her from authorities and corporations who want to exploit her unique biology. Maisie resents the isolation and secrecy because she does not yet understand the full truth of her origins — that she is a clone — and feels her identity has been kept from her.

• What happens to Lewis Dodgson and why is his fate significant?▾

  Lewis Dodgson is killed by a pack of Dilophosaurus dinosaurs when he becomes trapped in a cargo container while trying to destroy evidence and flee the collapsing Biosyn facility. His death is a deliberate callback to the original Jurassic Park (1993), in which Dodgson appeared as a corrupt Biosyn agent who also tried to steal dinosaur embryos — and he was famously taunted by Dennis Nedry, who called out his name on the docks. His demise by the same spitting Dilophosaurus species mirrors the fate of Nedry, completing the thematic circle.
