Despite giving us a trailer and numerous images, Universal Pictures has so far done a great job of keeping the new big bad from Colin Trevorrow’s upcoming dino-sequel Jurassic World under wraps, even going so far as to have images of the LEGO version taken down (although curiously, the studio didn’t mind this image, which presumably means it’s fake).
It was thought that the genetically-engineered creature would be going by the name of Diabolus Rex – or D-Rex – but a new product listing has surfaced over at JurassicWorld2015 which seems to indicate the beast has undergone a name change to Indominus Rex…
Jurassic World is set for release on June 12th 2015, with a cast that includes stars Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy), Bryce Dallas Howard (Terminator Salvation), Jake Johnson (New Girl), Vincent D’Onofrio (Law & Order: Criminal Intent), Omar Sy (X-Men: Days of Future Past), BD Wong (Jurassic Park), Irrfan Khan (The Amazing Spider-Man), Judy Greer (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes), Nick Robinson (The Kings of Summer), and Lauren Lapkus (Orange is the New Black).
