Laura Dern says it is right time for her to return to 'Jurassic Park' franchise

Press Trust of India  |  Los Angeles 

Laura Dern, who played Dr in the original 1993 "Jurassic Park" film, says she would not mind returning to the franchise.

The 51-year-old believes it would make sense to see Dr again in the franchise as "it's a good time for powerful, feminist characters to be honoured".

"I loved I feel the proudest that a feminist, sassy, take-no-prisoners energy, who was integral to the storyline in saving the day, was honoured. I've had so many kids boys and girls for a couple decades now, come up to me saying, 'I became a palaeontologist because of you'. And I love that it's boys and girls," Dern told

Earlier this month, said he will feel "robbed" if the original stars of the "Jurassic Park" franchise -- Dern and Sam Neill-- do not return for the next installment of the series.

Recently made his return to the franchise with "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom".
