First footage from Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom revealed

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is soon to drop and filmmaker Colin Trevorrow has whet our appetites with this short snippet of Chris Pratt, who plays dinosaur researcher Owen Grady, chilling with an adorable baby velociraptor.

The clip was posted to Trevorrow's Twitter account on Thursday, and reveals a cuter side to the franchise's infamous killers.

While the teaser doesn't give away many plot details for the upcoming Jurassic World sequel, Trevorrow himself dropped a few cheeky hints along the way.

According to LadBible, the screenwriter told reporters at Spain’s Sitges Film Festival that the latest instalment will be a 'parable of the treatment animals receive today'.
