I still love Jurassic Park! When it first came out my son was a tiny little boy and perfectly mimicked T-Rex and the V Raptors. His body movements were incredibly accurate and it was stunning to watch, lol 😭

When it was released in 1993, Jurassic Park became one of the biggest blockbusters to ever take the big screen by storm. And even though these 30 years haven’t weakened our admiration for this classic movie and its cast, we can’t deny that the actors have physically changed and grown older over the course of those 3 decades. This is why we grew curious and did a little digging to see what the beloved actors of Jurassic Park look like now.
Sam Neill as Alan — age 45 and 72
Laura Dern as Ellie — age 25 and 55
Jeff Goldblum as Malcolm — age 40 and 67
Ariana Richards as Lex — age 13 and 42
Samuel L. Jackson as Arnold — age 44 and 73
BD Wong as Dr. Wu — age 32 and 61
Joseph Mazzello as Tim — age 9 and 35
Wayne Knight as Dennis — age 37 and 63
