Jurassic Park III (2001) and Muppets Most Wanted (2014)

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two sequels, one with a far more complete script than the other!

2001's Jurassic Park III arrived a year after originally planned, thanks to a very late decision to abandon the script - after $18m had already been spent on the film.

Muppets Most Wanted (2014) meanwhile faced huge logistical problems, courtesy of a decision to make the film in London. That, and its late name change caused a problem too.

Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
