Colin Trevorrow to craft Atlantis film with House of the Dragon writer

February 7, 2023 by EJ Moreno

Atlantis will be visited once again as Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow will helm a new film based on the story of the lost city. The Hollywood Reporter broke the story today, noting Trevorrow will not only helm the project but also produce via Metronome Film Company alongside David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Don Granger for Skydance.

Charmaine DeGraté, a writer and co-executive producer on HBO’s House of the Dragon, will also join the team as a writer and producer for the project. DeGraté and Trevorrow are re-working the screenplay based on a previous draft of the script written by Dante Harper.

THR notes the film is a “fantasy adventure based on the fabled advanced civilization that sank and then was lost due to either the elements, ancient gods, or man’s hubris.”

Atlantis has been a centerpiece of quite a few Hollywood projects. We’ve seen it in films since 1938, where the city was the focal point of Undersea Kingdom. It is most famously depicted in Atlantis: The Lost Empire, a 2001 Disney animated film. The story initially followed a fictional island mentioned in an allegory on the hubris of nations in Plato’s works Timaeus and Critias.

Trevorrow recently helmed Jurassic World Dominion, the third installment of the Jurassic World franchise, which made over a billion at the worldwide box office last year.
