“We are extremely fortunate to have captured such an amazing story of discovery by three very young kids, which has naturally generated an extensive amount of international news coverage,” said producer Don Kempf. “And with T. rex being such an appealing, widely popular topic, we’re excited about the film’s box office potential. We are releasing the film exclusively to the museum cinema market, and hope that each one of them can individually leverage this remarkable press coverage as a springboard to drive local publicity.”

ABOUT THE FILM
For over a hundred years dinosaurs have inspired and thrilled audiences, commanding blockbuster status in museums and at the box office. But among them towers a king—a tyrant lizard king. With leaps in CGI wizardry and revolutions in tyrannosaur paleontology over the past twenty-five years, the time has come to revisit rex in the world’s prestigious museum cinemas.
Working with top tyrannosaur scientists, a coalition of natural history institutions, and pioneering paleo and visual effects artists, GSF’s original giant screen production on this iconic dinosaur—and its carnivorous Cretaceous cousins—aims to be the most dazzling and accurate T. rex documentary ever made.
With hat tips to famous specimens, landmark discoveries, and wild cinematic depictions over the last century, the film will explore the interplay between speculation and evidence, and reveal how the process of science refreshes and reimagines our understanding of this legendary dinosaur.
