Because I would like to live at least another decade or two.”
“I have built terraces in my house and I have planted olive groves and cypress trees that I would like to see grow. In addition, there are also my grandchildren, whom I would love to see grow up. But what about death? I couldn’t care less,” the actor acknowledged.
The original Jurassic Park trio
Although he has been a bit away from the cameras, now we know why, one of the last films in which Sam Neill could be seen on the big screen was Jurassic World: Dominion, for the moment the last film of the dinosaur saga, which Neil himself started in 1993 with the premiere of Jurassic Park.
But he did not do it alone, because at that moment Neill was accompanied by actress Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum, both actors who also accompanied him in the latest film directed by Colin Trevorrow. Among Sam Neill’s upcoming projects is the Apples Never Fall series for Peacock.
