Universal Pictures has dug up screenwriters to fast-track "Jurassic Park 4."
The studio tapped husband and wife team Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver who are fresh off the box-office hit "Rise of the Planet the Apes" to write the script, Deadline.com reported.
Steven Spielberg, Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall are set to produce the fourth installment of the dinosaur adventure franchise based on Michael Crichton's best-selling novel. Spielberg, however, won't direct, with the sci-fi tent-pole "Robopocalypse" already on his plate.
Jaffa and Silver are currently at work on the sequel to their "Planet of the Apes" prequel for Fox, tentatively titled "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes."
Dinosaur fans who can't wait until Jurassic Park 4s release will get the chance to see the 1993 original when it's released in 3-D on July 19, 2013.
