Primal Carnage: The Movie

Primal Carnage: The Movie, marketed simply as Primal Carnage, is a science-fiction dinosaur action movie made by Universal Pictures and Legendary Entertainment based on the popular human vs. dinosaur games Primal Carnage and Primal Carnage: Extinction by Lukewarm Media and Pub Games, also containing elements from Primal Carnage: Genesis. The movie is directed by [TBA] and has released November 1, 2023, which is about 11 years after the release of the original Primal Carnage game in 2012. It uses a mixture of CGI and animatronic dinosaurs (similar to the Jurassic Park franchise) based off of the models from the games.

Synopsis/Plot
A wealthy businessman by the name of Mr. Lawrence Carter (Chris Evans) and his genetic engineering company "Phoenix International" have made an incredible scientific breakthrough; the stuff from pop culture and the fantasy of many paleontologists around the world: the ability to clone dinosaurs. Being the multibillionaire that he is, Carter purchases a large island, dubbed "New Eden", as a sanctuary for his assets. Everything was smooth for Phoenix, until General Wagner (Benedict Cumberbatch), a former friend and colleague of Mr. Carter, initiated a covert operation that resulted in the breakout of "Big Daddy", the cloned Tyrannosaurus rex, as well as a variety of Phoenix International's other dinosaur specimens. Unable to deal with the dinosaur crisis, Mr. Carter hires a group of mercenaries, including Marcus Tyler (Terry Crews), an African American war veteran that was supposedly MIA, Jackson Stone (Hugh Jackman), an Australian big-game hunter reported to be a poacher, Moira Hart (Kate Winslet), a British biologist that previously worked with giraffes in Africa, Joseph Crane (Zahn McClarnon), a Native American survival expert, and Angus McLaughlin (James McAvoy), a Scottish pyromaniac who created the flamesaw, a fusion between a flamethrower and a chainsaw. Together, the mercenaries must end the threat once and for all, by either tranquilizing or killing Big Daddy. Will they succeed, or will they become extinct?

Trivia

 * It is unknown whether or not there will be sequels.
 * This movie is based off of the lore of the Primal Carnage games' story, while taking some inspirational elements from the Jurassic Park franchise. For example, Jurassic World has both a dinosaur antagonist (Indominus rex) and a human antagonist (Vic Hoskins). In this movie, the dinosaur antagonists are the Alpha Novaraptor and Carnotaurus, the Acrocanthosaurus, Badass, and the Hunt Raptors later in the movie, while the human antagonist is General Wagner.
 * Compsognathus, Dilophosaurus, Cryolophosaurus, Pteranodon, Tupandactylus, Novaraptor, Oviraptor, Pachycephalosaurus, Carnotaurus, Ceratosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Spinosaurus are the only species in this movie that actually appear in any of the Primal Carnage games.
 * Big Daddy, despite being an antagonist in the first half of the film, eventually turns into an antihero towards the end of the film.
