Jurassic Park (1993) Deleted Scenes

FILMS > JURASSIC PARK TRILOGY > JURASSIC PARK > DELETED SCENES

While not included on any DVD or Blu-Ray release, there were a number of scenes filmed for Jurassic Park that were not included in the final cut. Some of these omissions are merely shots, like Ellie grabbing the leaf out of the Jeep which was seen in the theatrical trailer but left out of the final release, and some are entire sequences that were entirely removed from the final movie.

It is entirely possible other sequences were removed from the movie but the subject itself is unfortunately not well documented. Some of the known scenes are listed below.

	Extended Dig Site Cut due to pacing, the original script described an extended scene which emphasised the relationship between Dr. Alan Grant and Dr. Ellie Sattler. The scene also including more information about the Velociraptor skeleton and overall provided more background information on the characters, allowing for some foreshadowing of the intelligence seen later in the film with the Velociraptors.
	Ellie Grabs A Leaf Seen in a trailer for the film but cut from the actual film, this shot shows Ellie in the gas powered Jeep on the way from the Helicopter landing pad to the Brachiosaurus scene, where she grabs the leaf that she is holding later in that scene.
	Extended Triceratops Scene This extended Triceratops scene would have further explained why and how the animals were getting sick. Tim found rounded stones beside the West Indian Lilac plant that we know is toxic to the animals. It is suggested by Ellie and Grant that when the Triceratops eats the gizzard stones, it accidentally eats the berries as well, thus getting sick.

The scene also including more information about the Velociraptor skeleton and overall provided more background information on the characters, allowing for some foreshadowing of the intelligence seen later in the film with the Velociraptors.
	Extended Journey to the Shed This was an extended version of the scene where Muldoon and Ellie head to the shed to find Arnold/restart the power. Likely cut purely due to timing, the scene appears in a behind the scenes feature on the Beyond Jurassic Park DVD.
	Extended Velociraptor in the Shed We know there was supposed to be other scenes filmed in the Maintenance Shed, and the scene following was also originally longer. Before Ellie shouts the infamous “RUN” line, there is a little bit of dialogue between herself and Dr. Grant, where he is in the compound and recognises Ellie, who calls for him.
	Extended Hatchery Sequence In an extended sequence before the lab scene, Gennaro tries to stop Hammond from allowing the group to enter the lab, and Alan Grant rushes ahead and tries to force open the door to the hatchery. Extended dialogue between Malcolm and Ellie was also trimmed, where Malcolm details his theory on why the park will fail.
