Jurassic Park Movies in Chronological Order
(Mild spoilers ahead regarding characters, settings, and plot points.)
1. Jurassic Park (1993)
The Jurassic Park chronology is largely straightforward, with the release order mirroring the chronological order—only the short films and Netflix series require additional guidance. This adaptation of Michael Crichton's novel introduces the core concept: cloned dinosaurs, housed in a theme park on Isla Nublar, by a visionary entrepreneur (Richard Attenborough).
Paleontologist Alan Grant (Sam Neill), paleobotanist Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern), and mathematician Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) assess the park's safety alongside John Hammond's grandchildren, Lex and Tim Murphy. A storm and sabotage disable the security system, unleashing chaos as they fight for survival against velociraptors and a T-Rex.
