Steven Spielberg and 20th Century Fox TV will be bringing dinosaurs to the small screen in an upcoming project. No it’s not ‘Jurassic Park: the TV show’, the series will be called Terra Nova. The reported premise of the show is based around a futuristic family that travels back in time roughly 150 million years to the wild landscape of Earth when dinosaurs were roaming around trying to avoid asteroids.

The project is apparently so expensive that rather than making a pilot episode as most shows do, it will go straight into series production as it’s reportedly too costly to make, shut it down and re-start.

The script for “Terra Nova” was co-written by Craig Silverstein, Kelly Marcel and Craig Silverstein (producer of Bones).
