Jurassic World movie billboards...

How times have changed. Who'd have thought a few years ago when Chris Pratt was starring in the NBC sitcom Parks and Recreation that he'd soon be helming several major film franchises, like the reboot of the prehistoric box office blockbuster in Jurassic World.

His breakout role (and muscular makeover) in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, plus the fact he starred opposite a talking raccoon and alien tree, make him the perfect funny guy to charm a pack of velociraptors in this entry in Jurassic Park lore.

Set twenty-two years after the 1993 classic, Isla Nublar is now a fully functioning dinosaur theme park, as envisioned by 'John Hammond' - 'The park is open'.

However, after ten years of visitors, corporate greed and falling attendance has led to the creation of a new hybrid dino attraction to regenerate interest in the park. Unsurprisingly, things do not go to plan.

The Jurassic World teaser billboard was first snapped on May 8 at Universal Studios Hollywood, whilst the landscape ad creatives featuring our motorbike-riding hero were spotted along Melrose Avenue and Beverly Boulevard on May 19, plus the portrait version was photographed along Hollywood Boulevard on May 26, 2015.

The super-sized billboards for the new movie were spotted along Sunset Boulevard, Highland Avenue and Wilshire Boulevard on May 28, 2015.

Daily Billboard's favourite has to be the creative featuring the shark-eating monster dinosaur as it adds something new and refreshing to the films, plus it's far less drab than the other billboards.

If you're a fan of the original movie franchise, be sure to also check out all these original costumes, models and props from the Jurassic Park movies on display and these Jurassic Park 3D billboards from 2013.

Will you be along for this new Jurassic World ride?

UPDATED: Here's another different ad creative for the movie sequel, this time featuring Bryce Dallas Howard as the park operation manager, 'Claire Dearing', face-to-snout with their new deadly creation. This billboard version was snapped along La Cienega Boulevard on June 2, 2015.
