\n\n\n\nThe show is a follow-up to Camp Cretaceous, an animated series that saw six campers become stranded on the island of Jurassic World after the Indominus Rex disaster. Chaos Theory picks up a number of years after their eventual rescue, and follows these familiar faces as they tackle various dangers and threats in the new modern world.
\n\n\n\nWe’re going to give you our thoughts on season one of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory! As always with these reviews – if you want to remain completely spoiler free then maybe best to avoid this one, but either way we won’t be spoiling any major plot points here!
\n\n\n\nRead on for our review of Season ONE of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory…
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/05/chaostheory_poster1-691x1024.jpg\"){kind=spacer}
Chaos Theory is a thrill ride from start to finish – one would honestly expect nothing less from the follow-up series to Camp Cretaceous. While Jurassic’s first animated outing secluded the stories to the dinosaur-riddled islands of the pacific, Chaos Theory firmly places us in the present day, or near enough anyway, in a Jurassic world where dinosaurs now roam.
\n\n\n\nThe Nublar Six are now famous – or perhaps infamous – for their ties to the Jurassic World disaster and the dinosaurs that it has ultimately unleashed upon the world. Very early on in the story Chaos Theory perfectly demonstrates the concept that was set up and teased to the audience in Fallen Kingdom: dinosaurs in our world. Arguably this concept is still a desired one, having not been a very large feature in the final World movie, but Chaos Theory showcases it really well, throughout the story, in ways that are natural, engaging, and realistic.
\n\n\nThe very first episode, “Aftershock,” teases this concept with radio commentary from disgruntled civilians; the reality of dinosaurs in our world isn’t a dinotopia. The writers have carefully crafted the world that we enter to show us these realities in ways the movies haven’t, and sometimes a single shot tells you everything you need to know. Chaos Theory continues to show us that these dinosaurs are not monsters, but animals living in an unfamiliar world. And don’t forget, this is the first time we are truly seeing an expansive, detailed look at dinosaurs being out on the mainland, a very important and world-changing period of time in the Jurassic story.
\n\n\n\nThe first season of Chaos Theory is an unravelling mystery that takes – with confidence – a darker, shadier, and more mature tone than its predecessor. Our campers have grown, and with that, so too has the storytelling. Many elements of the campers’ search for the truth while evading dinosaur and human danger harken back to the Nublar Six’s experiences doing the very same things on Isla Nublar. But in some ways, this feels like a whole new BEAST.
\n\n\n\nWriter & showrunner Scott Kreamer and his team have shown here that they understand this franchise. Chaos Theory seems to perfectly represent a crossing of the two Jurassic eras, each with their own distinct tones. Both fans of the Jurassic Park trilogy AND fans of the Jurassic World trilogy will feel like there is something for them here.
\n\n\n\nThe show is filled with references and callbacks to the early movies, and seemingly a number directly to The Lost World. Chaos Theory brings back the RAPTORS, those gloriously cunning and violent beasts. They are here, and while not Velociraptors, the Atrociraptors from Dominion are absolutely vicious in this show and if you’ve been longing for some raptor action – then Chaos Theory delivers.
\n\n\nNone of the characters feel out of place and they all feel like grown, developed versions of their former selves, characters who have reacted and adapted to the new world they live in. All the minute observations, the micro behaviors that make these characters themselves – they’re all on display here. The personal relationships and the intricacies of these characters continue to be the strongest element of this series.
\n\n\n\nOne of our favourite elements in this first season is Yasmina’s personal struggle with what happened to them on the islands. The dream sequence that we saw in Camp Cretaceous showed us how the experience was already tormenting her, and this show continues to explore that narrative with her character’s growth.
\n\n\n\nAnd maybe we should address the elephant in the room: Brooklynn. We won’t be spoiling anything, as this show deserves YOUR viewing experience. You will like where this goes, and how it unravels. It’s emotional, it’s nerve-wracking, it’s a new Jurassic world.
\n\n\n\nThe additional characters in this show, while not main features, all hold their own well. There is one who will likely become the most memorable, and the humor he brings is the perfect comedic timing required in this… pretty intense show.
\n\n\nVisually, this show delivers! Diverse locations, great lighting and composition – it all comes together here to provide some fantastic visuals. The animation and lighting in many environments is simply gorgeous. From dazzling sunsets to moonlit horrors, the understanding of Jurassic’s color pallet is on display here. The dinosaurs themselves appear to have had some polish too, looking even closer to their movie counterparts than the already impressive Camp Cretaceous. There are some moments in this season that look near photo-realistic, adding to the beauty and mystique of the series.
\n\n\n\nOf course, there are new dinosaurs which deliver on the chills and thrills you would expect from a Jurassic World. But we also get incredibly touching moments between man and dinosaur which continue to prove that these dinosaurs (most of them anyway) are animals – animals that deserve our respect. Chaos Theory simultaneously dials up the intensity and terror of dinosaur encounters. It doesn’t shy away from the reality of it, and we love that.
\n\n\n\nWhile some encounters might leave you thinking of Maisie’s superhuman escape abilities in Fallen Kingdom, overall this series is an improvement on an already great premise that fans of the Jurassic story want to see. Camp Cretaceous fans will be happy with the show’s new direction and the quality time spent with beloved characters. We can’t help but be excited for what might come next!
\n\n\nThe overall story doesn’t shy away from its conspiratorial inspiration: the ever-growing distrust of establishment, corporations, and the media. It’s all quite present as this story evolves. This show is off to an excellent start at building a mysterious, dramatic new world for our characters to navigate with its dark, engaging visuals, striking musical score, and excellent voice performances.
\n\n\n\nThe show, the ending, all of it will all leave you wanting more, not just for what happens but for the fact that this first season flies by. It’s tight, contained, and near perfect in its execution. Another big credit to executive producers Scott Kreamer and Aaron Hammersley, who have created Jurassic’s animated world and made it something worth returning to.
\n\n\n\nChaos Theory solidly and progressively fills the space in this franchise that was first opened by Camp Cretaceous, and while the fourth and fifth seasons of that show may have been divisive, Chaos Theory moves forward in the right direction.
\n\n\n\nWe’ve never been in the habit of giving actual ratings in our reviews but what we will say is that Jurassic World: Chaos Theory might be one of the best things to happen in the Jurassic World era.
\n\n\n\nBut that’s just our opinion!
\n\n\n\nIt arrives on Netflix May 24th – and trust us, this one’s worth the watch.

Gareth Edwards is directing, David Koepp is writing, Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall are executive producing, Scarlett Johansson is in talks to star, but there are still some unknowns…
\n\n\n\nWho’s going to shoot this film? (Greig Fraser?)
\n\n\n\nWho will create the visual effects?
\n\n\n\nWho’s going to fill the rest of the cast?
\n\n\n\nWho’s going to be creating sound?
\n\n\n\nWho… will compose the music?
\n\n\n\nMusic – both orchestral and otherwise – is an integral bone in the Jurassic skeleton, and an irreplaceable part of the art and filmmaking that go into creating all of the films we love. When it comes to the narrative mediums of film and television, fans of Jurassic have experienced scores from the greatest film composer of all time, John Williams, the amazing Double D Don Davis, the inimitable Michael Giacchino, and incredibly gifted newcomers like Amie Doherty and Leo Birenberg. Whoever is brought on board by Gareth Edwards and producers to create the musical world for the next Jurassic film will be joining some pretty fantastic dinosaur music company. Will it be someone familiar, or someone new? My hope and my bet is on some new blood, but… we shall see!
\n\n\n\nLet’s talk about who we think should be the composer for the next Jurassic movie!
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/IMG_3381-2-1024x576.jpg\")
John Williams
\n\n\n\nThe obvious choice! And while we know the GOAT Johnny Williams coming back to Jurassic isn’t too likely to happen, we had to take the time to mention it and dream for a second about John Williams Jurassic music. Jurassic Park? The Lost World? Near the top of his most iconic scores! Imagine if he came back, even just to write a new theme or piece of music like he did exceptionally well for SOLO? He has returned to other franchises to continue his musical legacy before, so it wouldn’t be unheard of. The circumstances, timing, and story would all have to line up… Regardless, we’ll always have Malcolm’s Journey as the underscore to one of the best Jurassic moments.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/JW7.jpg\")
Amie Doherty
\n\n\n\nThe next choice on our list is the composer of Jurassic World short film Battle at Big Rock, which was a hit with pretty much every Jurassic fan – it was a great display of the awe and terror that comes with dinosaurs being loose in the world, solidified by Amie’s use of Jurassic musical themes both classic and new. Musically she goes from the Jurassic World theme, to utter terror, to the Jurassic Park and Lost World themes, all within about 10 minutes. Her Jurassic experience combined with her work since then on projects like Spirit Untamed, Undone, and She-Hulk demonstrate her command of the orchestra and thematic skills, making her a perfect choice for a future Jurassic movie.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/AD2-1024x677.jpg\")
Sarah Schachner
\n\n\n\nComposer of the Predator franchise film Prey Sarah Schachner is next on our list. She also created the scores for The Lazarus Effect, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare I & II, Assassins Creed: Valhalla, Anthem, and multiple other video games and series. She has experience adapting previous thematic material into new projects with Prey while simultaneously creating something fresh and new. On top of her experience in the science-fiction realm, her video game music is top-notch, emotional, and action-packed – she could be a great musical fit for the next Jurassic.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/SS5.jpg\")
Leo Birenberg & Zach Robinson
\n\n\n\nJurassic World: Camp Cretaceous composer Leo Birenberg would be a solid talent to call upon for the next Jurassic film. His work over 5 seasons and 50 episodes of the show contain some excellent Jurassic music, fitting in perfectly with the island settings and dinosaurs throughout. He and his scoring partner Zach Robinson have worked recently on Cobra Kai, Twisted Metal, and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. Their modern style with familiar orchestral elements could work well with a modern Jurassic story, not to mention, having another composer with a bit of Jurassic experience would be great!
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/Leo2.jpg\")
Hans Zimmer
\n\n\n\nThe next composer finds himself on our list in part because he has experience working with director Gareth Edwards on his latest feature The Creator. No doubt you’ll recognize the name of legendary musician and film composer Hans Zimmer! He’s created countless iconic scores for films like Pirates of the Caribbean, The Lion King, The Dark Knight, Inception, Interstellar, Dune, and Gladiator (to name only a few). His music from Backdraft was used in an incredible trailer for The Lost World: Jurassic Park, so technically he has touched Jurassic before! His connection to Gareth and iconic, engrossing music are big upsides, and while his more modern style doesn’t really fit Jurassic at all in my opinion, his more orchestral music in the past would give me hope if he were chosen to score the next Jurassic.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/HZ2-1024x677.jpg\")
James Newton Howard
\n\n\n\nJames Newton Howard: composer for amazing films like Disney’s Dinosaur, Atlantis, The Hunger Games, Signs, and the 2005 King Kong remake – has a strong musical argument to score a Jurassic film. Howard’s music exudes adventure and suspense in its brass fanfares, sweeping strings, and the overall power he provides the orchestra with his writing. He’s written breathtaking music for dinosaurs more than once already, but is also clearly able to create chilling and exciting music for science fiction, fantasy, and adventure stories. Listening to his score for Dinosaur recently… I would be very excited at the prospect of his take on a Jurassic score.
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/JNH4-1024x576.png\")
Kara Talve and Anže Rozman
\n\n\n\nComposers Kara Talve and Anže Rozman are no strangers to creating music for dinosaurs in wild global habitats. Their score for the AppleTV+ series Prehistoric Planet is massive, grand, and majestic, and they even created their own dinosaur instruments to add to the orchestra! Outside of dinosaurs their work, both separately and together, ranges from The Simpsons to Faraway Downs to BBC’s The Planets. Kara and Anže enjoy creating excitement and wonder with their music, and the vast emotional and stylistic range in their Prehistoric Planet score alone provides an intriguing foundation should they ever get the opportunity to score a Jurassic project.
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/KTAR6.jpg\")
Natalie Holt
\n\n\n\nAnother composer who has followed in John Williams’ footsteps while also paving a path of her own is Natalie Holt. She took on the Star Wars universe with her score for the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, and has also scored exciting projects like The Princess, Marvel’s Loki series, Knightfall, and a project unfortunately shelved by idiot execs at Warner Brothers, Batgirl. Regardless, she did a fantastic job carrying on John Williams’ styles and themes in Obi-Wan Kenobi. That and her engaging, mysterious style on Loki would have me very intrigued to hear her take on some Jurassic music.

Joe Kraemer
\n\n\n\nMission Impossible: Rogue Nation, Jack Reacher, and The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot all boast music by composer Joe Kraemer. While those titles may not sound too related to Jurassic, their music certainly is. Kraemer’s grasp of traditional orchestra and use of brassy motifs and rhythmic strings could be great for a Jurassic adventure. His somewhat old-school approach to huge action set pieces and more intimate moments of espionage in Mission Impossible followed by the danger and uncertainty his music aids in Jack Reacher could pair very well with a science fiction dinosaur story likely filled with international intrigue and suspense.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/JK3.jpg\")
Alexandre Desplat
\n\n\n\nLast on our list, but certainly not least, is Alexandre Desplat – a solid orchestral composer who is extremely creative thematically and in his choice of instruments. Not to mention, he’s worked with the man, the myth, the Gareth on a reptile movie before! His score catalog speaks for itself with intense and bombastic action music for Godzilla, sweeping, emotional music for the final two Harry Potter film installments, and quirky, tunes for many Wes Anderson films. He also created suspenseful, yet poignant music for The Shape of Water, and engaging thriller music for Argo. My gut says the next Jurassic score has a good chance of coming from the mind of Desplat – his experience with director Gareth Edwards is valuable, and his ability to work an orchestra to create captivating, thematic music no matter the genre could make a flawless pairing with Jurassic.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/Desplat6.jpg\")
So, that’s our list of the top composers we think could score the next Jurassic – Jurassic World 4. However, there are a few honorable mentions who may also find their way to a new Jurassic project in the future:
\n\n\n\nJongnic Bontemps (affectionately know as JB), composer of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.
\n\n\n\nHenry Jackman, Marvel and Jumanji composer.
\n\n\n\nLudwig Goransson, known for his sweeping hybrid scores for Black Panther, The Mandalorian, and Oppenheimer.
\n\n\n\nChristophe Beck, composer of Marvel projects and other great orchestral works.
\n\n\n\nJohn Powell of How to Train Your Dragon, Bourne, and Solo: A Star Wars Story fame.
\n\n\n\nAnd of course, a name that could still happen for Jurassic, Michael Giacchino, whose bombastic, sweeping, and epic music left a large dinosaur footprint on the Jurassic World trilogy. Giacchino has been the Jurassic composer for three films in a row – would it make sense for him to simply continue? He started out in the world of Jurassic by scoring The Lost World and Warpath: Jurassic Park video games before making his way onto bigger things. Similarly, Amie Doherty and Leo Birenberg have composed music for smaller Jurassic projects, and it could be a perfect time for them to move onto bigger projects as well. While I’m hoping for some new blood in the Jurassic musical world, Giacchino’s experience with Jurassic and Gareth Edwards keeps him in the possible conversation going forward.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/04/MG9.jpg\")
But, we’ll have to see which composer nature (or the producers and studio) chooses to create the music for the next Jurassic story.

A new teaser trailer for the upcoming DreamWorks series ‘Jurassic World: Chaos Theory‘ has roared online and revealed the series will premiere on Netflix May 24th, 2024. Check out the trailer below, and then read on for even more details about the ‘Camp Cretaceous’ sequel!
\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSet six years after the events at Camp Cretaceous, members of “The Nublar Six” are struggling to find their footing off the islands, navigating a world now filled with dinosaurs and people who want to hurt them. Reunited in the wake of a tragedy, the group comes together only to find themselves on the run and catapulted into a global adventure to unravel a conspiracy that threatens dinosaur and humankind alike and finally learn the truth about what happened to one of their own.
The animated series, set to debut on May 24, 2024, consists of 10 episodes, each running for 22 minutes. The voice cast features the return of Paul-Mikel Williams as “Darius” and Sean Giambrone as “Ben.” Steven Spielberg, Colin Trevorrow, and Frank Marshall reprise their role as executive producers, with Scott Kreamer and Aaron Hammersley serving as both executive producers and showrunners. Additionally, Zesung Kang acts as the supervising producer.
While the new trailer and synopsis are light on details, they still give us a lot to chomp down on. Set six years after their escape from Isla Nublar and Mantah Corp Island (which by our estimates means the show takes place a few months before the events of Jurassic World Dominion), the campers are now young adults living their own lives trying to make the best of a world where dinosaurs roam free. Ben reveals they’re being hunted by nefarious individuals with unknown motives, and soon after Ben and Darius are attacked by Atrociraptors (and these aren’t just any Atrociraptors: in the trailer we see Tiger, Ghost, and Panthera from Jurassic World Dominion). Given what we know from Dominon we can’t help but wonder if Atrociraptor handler and black market smuggler Soyona Santos is the one hunting them – but for what reason remains a mystery.
\n\n\n\nAs for the other characters played by Jenna Ortega (Brooklynn), Ryan Potter (Kenji), Kausar Mohammed (Yasmina), and Raini Rodriguez (Sammy) there’s no word if or how they will return – but the trailer makes it clear Darius and Ben set out on an adventure to find them, so we wager they will be back. Of course, the synopsis hints at a grim fate for one of them, and we wager Brooklyn – who was investigating the Lockwood Manor incident during the Camp Cretaceous epilogue – stirred the proverbial Atrociraptor nest and has gone missing, kickstarting the conspiracy that is unfolding.
\n\n\n\nThe trailer doesn’t give much more away, but we do see a website titled ‘Dark Jurassic’ which visually seems similar to Dinotracker suggesting an underground movement to understand what is happening with the dinosaurs in the world. Likewise, there is a lot of vehicle action – could this show have a road trip theme as our heroes search for their friends and avoid being eaten by hungry dinosaurs? Finally, speaking of dinos: the trailer also showcases a glimpse of the Allosaurus and what appears to be the rumored Becklespinax.
\n\n\n\nYou can learn more about this trailer and watch our detailed breakdown below:
\n\n\n\nThis leaves us with a lot to digest, and we cannot wait to see the show unfold May 24th. Until then, stay tuned to Jurassic Outpost for all the latest news!
