[7] Throughout the novel and film adaptation, Malcolm makes predictions based on chaos theory about the consequences and ultimate failure of attempting to control nature, which often turn out to be correct.
Malcolm has brief appearances in the 2018 film Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, in which he advises against the rescue of the last surviving dinosaurs, which are threatened by an impending volcanic eruption on Isla Nublar.
When problems begin to occur, he consistently handles them appropriately, accompanying Robert Muldoon on a mission to subdue the Tyrannosaurus and successfully restoring power, despite being ambushed by a Velociraptor.
Wu now regrets his actions and suggests that Biosyn kidnap human clone Maisie Lockwood and baby Velociraptor Beta, so he can study their altered DNA to spread changes to shorten their lifespan.
[50] In Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, while hunting for Blue the Velociraptor, Dodgson accidentally finds and retrieves the canister containing the embryos that Nedry had stolen for him, commenting that he could have used them twenty-five years before.
In his past as a graduate student, he had been dismissed by Johns Hopkins University for attempting a gene therapy experiment on human patients without following the proper Food and Drug Administration (FDA) protocols.
Biosyn is not mentioned in the first film, and Dodgson only makes a short appearance when he meets Nedry in San Jose, Costa Rica, and gives him $750,000 and an embryo transfer device disguised as a shaving cream container.
[62] In Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous, Dodgson, now the head of research for Biosyn, travels to Isla Nublar to make a deal with Daniel Kon for mind control chips for the dinosaurs.
In the film, it brings Dodgson closer to his literary counterpart from Michael Crichton's novel The Lost World as a murderous white-collar criminal, as he attempts to kill the protagonists who try to stop him, and human remains were found under his facility in abandoned mines nested by Dimetrodons.
However, he is secretly still nefarious and business-minded, having hired Henry Wu to engineer a breed of transgenic locusts that consume the crops of rival companies and Soyona Santos to serve as a criminal liaison to the black markets and for other off-the-books activities.
After his death, Dodgson's reputation is posthumously ruined by the revelation of his crimes and his company is at risk of going to defunct, starting with the United Nations taking over the protection rights of the dinosaurs from Biosyn.
[72] Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow provided the voice for the new film and said "it actually happened by mistake – I did it once in a booth, we were at a sound mix studio and I just [threw] it in there and we decided to keep it".
Regis is often given odd jobs by Hammond that are outside his area of expertise, such as escorting a wounded worker to a Costa Rican hospital, and acting as a babysitter for Lex and Tim during their visit to the park.
He attained this position after convincing InGen's board of directors to oust Hammond following an accident on Isla Sorna, in which a group of Compsognathus attacked a girl who was visiting the island with her family.
Kelly's teacher Richard Levine, aware that he is being followed by Ed James, hires her and Arby as his assistants to run errands for him ahead of his expedition to Isla Sorna.
Thorne's contribution to Levine's mission includes a large research trailer, nicknamed "The Challenger", an electric SUV, a motor bike, a pair of air rifles with poisonous darts, and a modified satellite phone.
His divorced parents, Paul and Amanda Kirby, pose as a wealthy couple and offer to finance Dr. Alan Grant's dig site if he accompanies them to the island and provides an aerial tour of its dinosaurs.
The Kirbys' mercenary team is killed, and Grant's graduate student Billy steals Velociraptor eggs to secure funding, putting the survivors at further risk when the raptors begin stalking the group.
After his son Eric goes missing, Paul enlists the help of Grant under the disguise of being the wealthy owner of Kirby Enterprises and falsely promises to fund the latter's dig site in exchange for an aerial tour of Isla Sorna.
He is hired to take Ben and Eric to the island; however, Enrique and his boat driver are killed offscreen when they enter a fog bank, causing the vessel to crash and the tourists to become stranded on Site B.
It found that Masrani Global had bribed members of the US House Committee of Science to revise a law in 2003, thereby allowing the company to start cloning dinosaurs for the upcoming Jurassic World.
[154] According to a promotional website for the DPG, Franklin is a Los Angeles native and initially began working at Jurassic World's off-site tech complex in Irvine, California.
Biosyn scientist Dr. Henry Wu wishes to study Maisie and Beta's altered DNA to find a solution to the company's giant locusts, which threaten the world food supply.
Having witnessed Owen Grady and Claire Dearing's adoptive daughter Maisie Lockwood being trafficked to the Biosyn, she helps them rescue her from the company's CEO Dr. Lewis Dodgson.
In an extended scene, shows that Ramsay sees potentials in Dodgson to be a good man, and urges him to atone his crimes by sharing the company's research worldwide and repurposing his hybrid locusts to improve the world's agricultures.
Although Ramsay is assigned to be their tour guide at Biosyn, the two eventually go off to collect a DNA sample from the company's giant locusts, after Malcolm informed them of a scheme to use the insects for domination over the food industry.
Arriving back to the place where it all began, Santos is making one final attempt to send her raptors after Owen, before being arrested by French intelligence agent Barry Sembène.
