'Jurassic World' Fan Theory: Chris Pratt's Character Was the Young Boy in 'Jurassic Park'
Movie

According to a fan theory, Chris' character Owen Grady was the 'volunteer boy' in the beginning of 'Jurassic Park' who said that the Velociraptor 'doesn't look very scary.'

AceShowbiz - A theory about the connection of Chris Pratt's character in "Jurassic World" and a character in "Jurassic Park" has been floating around the internet. According to the theory from "Community" creator Dan Harmond, as quoted by SlashFilm, Chris' Owen Grady was the "volunteer boy" who appeared in the beginning of "Jurassic Park".

In a clip from "Jurassic Park", the young boy appeared when Dr. Alan Grant, played by Sam Neill, was explaining about the velociraptor to the visitor. The young boy chimed in, "That doesn't look very scary. It's more like a six-foot turkey." Dr. Alan Grant then described to the young boy how the raptors could kill him and asked the kid to show some respect to the animal. The young boy responded with an "OK."

The production notes for "Jurassic World" revealed that Owen was an ex-military expert in animal behavior who has spent years training and studying the pack of aggressive Velociraptors "over whom he's established an alpha relationship that balances the animals precariously between reluctant obedience and predatory revolt."

When SlashFilm reached out to "Jurassic World" director Colin Trevorrow whether they had intended for Owen to be the grown up version of the "volunteer boy" from "Jurassic Park", Colin replied, "I'm not sure I want to answer because the speculation is so much fun. Let's not kill the fun."

However, Whit Hertford, who played the "volunteer boy", didn't believe the fan theory. Whit tweeted, "For the record, @prattprattpratt is not playing a grown up version of my character in @JurrasicWorld. that role is mine, dammit!"
