There’s been a steady stream of information coming out of the set of Jurassic World. Some fact, some bullshit, all interesting. Recently the film’s director, Colin Trevorrow, sat down with /Film to set the record (sort of) straight.

WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO READ ANY SPOILERS SKIP THE NEXT PARAGRAPH ENTIRELY

That’s the thing about leaks,” he tells the site regarding his disappointment over the leaks and rumors from the set. “Sometimes they aren’t misinterpreted or false. They’re real story elements that the filmmakers were hoping to introduce to the audience in a darkened movie theater. But unfortunately, in 2014, you read about it on a computer. Last week was discouraging for everyone on our crew–not because we want to hide things from the fans, but because we’re working so hard to create something full of surprises. When I was a kid, you got to discover everything at once, it washed over you and blew your mind. Now it only takes one person to spoil it for everyone else. I hope whoever leaked it is actively trying to undermine what we’re doing. Because if they’re trying to help, they’re doing it wrong. This film picks up twenty-two years after Jurassic Park. Jurassic World takes place in a fully functional park on Isla Nublar. It sees more than 20,000 visitors every day. You arrive by ferry from Costa Rica. It has elements of a biological preserve, a safari, a zoo, and a theme park. There is a luxury resort with hotels, restaurants, nightlife and a golf course. And there are dinosaurs. Real ones. You can get closer to them than you ever imagined possible and, yes, there will be one new dinosaur created by the park’s geneticists. It’s the realization of John Hammond’s dream, and I think you’ll want to go there. “
