Earlier this month, new promo art from Universal's Jurassic World gave us our best look at the action-adventure's brand new dinosaur, the Indominus Rex, a.k.a. D-Rex. Today, the official website for Jurassic World
was updated with a new poster teasing Indominus Rex, giving us a
close-up look at the massive teeth this dinosaur uses to destroy its
prey. The website also reveals that this dinosaur stands 40 feet tall,
and was brought to life in the Hammond Creation Lab at the Jurassic World resort. Take a look at the official description of Indominus Rex from the website.
"We
set out to make Indominus the most fearsome dinosaur ever to be
displayed at Jurassic World. The genetic engineers at our Hammond
Creation Lab have more than delivered. At first glance, Indominus most
closely resembles a T. Rex. But its distinctive head ornamentation and
ultra-tough bony osteoderms can be traced from Theropods known as
Abeliosaurs. Indominus' horns have been placed above the eye orbit
through genetic material hybridized from Carnotaurus, Majungasaurus,
Rugops and Giganotosaurus. Fearsome indeed. Indominus' roar is estimated
to reach 140-160db-the same as a 747 taking off and landing. And it can
reach speeds of 30 mph...while confined to its enclosure. Come
experience Indominus Rex for yourself beginning this summer. If you
dare."
Unfortunately, the D-Rex wasn't put on display in the first trailer that arrived back in November, but director Colin Trevorrow's
action-packed sequel will release a new trailer during the Super Bowl
this weekend. Could this be the first time we see Indominus Rex in
action? Take a look at the photos below, and let us know what you think
about this massive dinosaur.
