Introduction - Characters
'''Ian Malcolm''' (Neil Patrick Harris): Michael Crichton's avatar, the classic snarky theoretican and the male protagonist of TLW. He'll be just like his canon version, except his rivalry with the main antagonist will be more intense.
'''Sarah Harding''' (Hayley Orrantia): The female protagonist of TLW, Malcolm's protege who became his mate and one of Hammond's pawns. Her cinematic version had her flaws, but her novel version was badass, second only to Owen and Tembo on the toughness department. My version will be more similar to her novel version. The good intentions will stay though.
'''Eddie Carr''' (Reid Scott): Sarah's Engineer and possibly the first pure soul in the franchise. His death was the saddest one in TLW, and in my version, someone will die for the sin of bringing such great person to be killed.
'''Kelly Malcolm-Curtis''' (McKenna Grace): Malcolm's adopted daughter, Sarah's new protege and the first person in the franchise who killed a raptor without any firearm. She'll look and behave much like her novel version, but will also stay Malcolm's character development trigger like she was in the film. The reason she's white, and not black like in the movie, is because she was white in the novel too. Maybe i was carried away with my wish to make the reboot more similar to the novel. Thanks for the person who informed me about it.
''Dieter Stark''' (Iwan Rheon): Worse than the canon ludlow and Nick, and similar to Ken Wheatley, Dieter will do his best to antagonize both the dinosaurs and the heroes. I picture him as Iwan Rheon because playing Ramsay Bolton qualifies him to many villainous roles. Tembo knows better than trusting him, and keep him as his right-hand only to keep his enemies closer.
'''Bastille Nickson''' (Eliza Dushku): The token evil teammate of the heroes group, replacing Nick Van Owen. Bastile is a convicted crimial who'll be bailed out by Hammond in exchange for sabotaging Ludlow's plot. However, unlike Nick, Bastile will end up as a truly heroic character and redeem herself. It's also important to say that while Bastile/Nick did horrible things, the main guilties are Hammond and Ludlow, one for creating the whole situation in the first place and the other for fueling his redemption with blood.
Roland Tembo (Aidan Quinn): The classic hero of the ninties, the token good teammate of Ludlow's group and the man who's considered by many as one of the best. He wasn't the only good character in TLW, and Malcolm is still better, if only because Tembo was wrong about Ludlow and Malcolm was right about everything, but still a great man. Now, he'll be just the good old Tembo we came to know and adore. In contrast to the canon Tembo, his "The Lost Generation" version will come back in "Dig Yourself Together".
''AJ samedi''' (Riz Ahmed): Tembo's lifelong friend and partner, replacing Ajay. Unlike the canon Ajay, AJ will be more perceptive about Ludlow's real intentions, which will make the latter do everything to set him and Tembo apart. He'll still be killed in proximity to the long grass, but in a darker way.
'''Heather Ludlow''' (Naomi Watts): Hammond's vicious sororal niece, and the main antagonist of "Back To Brain Work". On the surface of things, Heather is an ambicious woman who wish to restore InGen to its glory days and rising to the top, even if it takes throwing her own uncle under the train. But her true self is an insecure psychopath who craves for appreciation and kill people fot it. Unlike her uncle, who realized he's an idiot and tried to make things right before he died, Heather will only try to make things profitable.
'''John Hammond''' (Michael Douglas): The man who invented Jurassic Park and a very contruvercial character. I have a lot of criticism toward this man, just like everyone else have, but i also respect his cinematic redemption. Honesly, i prefer that over his all villainous novel version. I would say that, at the end of the day, the cinematic Hammond is a grey character. Both harm and good. Both an arrogant man and a broken king who fought to end the reign of someone worse than himself.
