"Day one, when we were supposed to hear a distant, faint sound that could be the T-Rex, and we all had to listen to the sound at the same moment, Sir Richard Attenborough [who played park creator John Hammond] said, 'We're going to need a cue of some kind, there has to be something ominous about something in the distance and we're not sure we heard it,' and Steven said, 'Don't worry, don't worry,'"
"The camera rolled, and suddenly, with a megaphone in the middle of that moment, Steven sounded exactly like this, [ lamely] 'Rooarrrr... Rooaaarrr,'"
"And Sir Richard looked at me and was like, 'Oh my god, I'm not sure about this!' We had no idea."
Jurassic Park (1993) transformed Hollywood visual effects by using CGI to create realistic dinosaurs. Cast members faced uncertainty on set because the novel special effects could not yet be seen in final form. On the first day, Richard Attenborough requested an ominous cue for a distant T-Rex sound, and Spielberg improvised with a megaphone roar, prompting cast unease. After production finished, Spielberg, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, and Sam Neill watched the completed film together at Amblin with popcorn. The finished visuals astonished the cast and confirmed the film's groundbreaking achievement, leaving Dern 'mind blown.'
