Jurassic World 3
Will the opening scene in Jurassic World 3 be of dinosaurs in the old growth forest of Vancouver Island? The dinosaurs are off Isla Nublar in the next movie and out in the world.
Jurassic World 3 shot what is said to be its opening scene today in Cathedral Grove on Vancouver Island.
Here’s an arial view of Cathedral Grove — a forest of giant trees with the largest over 800 years old and many over 300 years old.
Filming notice at Cathedral Grove.
I found a drone camera crew filming near the Cameron River and in a clearing along the Cathedral Grove trail.

Checked out Cathedral Grove today and got a glimpse of some of the (supposedly) #JurassicWorld3 filming (just drone work). 🎬 pic.twitter.com/31oYPXZFZj

Would *love* to fly a drone someday… Got there just as they were landing the drone from its final flight. pic.twitter.com/NUIw55ARsl
