Fourth Jurassic Park 'coming soon'

Steven Spielberg has revealed that a fourth Jurassic Park film may only be a few years away.

Spielberg told an audience at the Comic-Con fan convention in San Diego on Friday that he has a story and a screenwriter for the next instalment of his blockbuster franchise about prehistoric reptiles brought into modern times through cloning.

The film-maker directed the first two Jurassic Park adventures but will be overseeing as a producer this time.

He said the film will hopefully come together in the next two or three years.

Steven Spielberg makes Comic-Con debut with 'Tintin'

There is no bigger geek god than Steven Spielberg, who made his Comic-Con debut today. And when he arrived on the Hall H stage, the packed audience gave him a fittingly enthusiastic standing ovation.

And the crowd went wild again just a few minutes later at the panel for The Adventures of Tintin, the director's new animated performance-capture flick, when he brought out his producer: Peter Jackson, who flew in from New Zealand during a break from filming The Hobbit.

George Lucas may be his best friend, but Spielberg looks at Jackson as a sibling. "Its like working with your brother. It's very, very easy."
