NBC, UNIVERSAL BRAND DEVELOPMENT AND LEGO UNLEASH TWO-PART ‘LEGO® JURASSIC WORLD: THE SECRET EXHIBIT’ ON NOV. 29
All-New
Animated Special Inspired By the Blockbuster “Jurassic World” Franchise
and Leading Toy Brand, LEGO, to Debut Exclusively on NBC
NEW
YORK — Nov. 8, 2018 — NBC has partnered with Universal Brand
Development and the LEGO Group for the upcoming debut of a two-part
animated special: “LEGO® Jurassic World: The Secret Exhibit.” The all-new animated special – inspired by the blockbuster Jurassic World franchise – will air Nov. 29 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.
The story takes place before the adventures of Jurassic World in
2015. In the special, Simon Masrani has an idea for a new attraction
that is guaranteed to keep Jurassic World at the forefront of theme park
entertainment. It’s the greatest thing since the discovery of
dinosaurs, but in order for it to succeed, he needs his right-hand
can-do problem solver, Claire Dearing, to get a trio of dinosaurs across
the park to the new, super-secret exhibit. Reluctantly teaming up with
newcomer Owen Grady, the animal behaviorist she hired sight unseen to
deliver the dinosaurs, the duo set out on a fun-filled adventure across
the island. Unfortunately, delivering the dinosaurs to the new
attraction is not as easy as they thought.
The
two-part special will be available to stream the morning after the NBC
broadcast, Nov. 30, across multiple platforms, including the NBC app and
NBC.com, where it can be viewed without a login, as well on Hulu and On
Demand. It will also be available for download from major digital
retailers. The DVD, with exclusive bonus content, drops Jan. 15, 2019.

ABOUT LEGO JURASSIC WORLD: THE SECRET EXHIBIT
With
the grand opening of Jurassic World’s new super-secret dinosaur exhibit
just days away, only one thing is missing … the dinosaurs! In order to
get the job done, Simon Masrani enlists his newly hired assistant,
Claire Dearing, to ensure the new attraction opens on time ... or else.
Unfortunately, Owen Grady, the animal behaviorist Claire hired to
deliver the dinosaurs, is late. Things aren’t looking too good for
Claire or Owen, who just wants to deliver the dinosaurs, collect his
paycheck and get off the island.
But
the mission to deliver the dinosaurs turns out to be far more difficult
than anyone could have imagined. From a runaway Gyrosphere,
hang-gliding with a Pteranodon (how did they get out of the Aviary?!),
to a high-speed game of chicken with a T-Rex, Owen will earn his
paycheck and then some. And Claire may just get promoted to Assistant
Manager of Park Operations. Along the way, we get the first inklings of
why Owen and Claire drive each other crazy, but despite their
differences, they succeed and make a great team. Oh, and Owen meets Blue
for the first time as he discovers he has a way with dinosaurs he never
knew about!
