Synopsis

An action-packed family adventure that combines the realism of Walking With Dinosaurs with the heart of Finding Nemo.

Speckles, a ferocious tarbosaurus and his young son junior, mourning the loss of their family in an epic battle, roam the lands in search of food, adventure and peace. Under the watchful eye of his dad, Junior is growing up healthy and strong, but with an overconfidence thanks to his young age.

After one encounter results in Junior being kidnapped, Speckles embarks on an adventure to the ends of earth to find his son. Encountering friend and foe, ally and enemy, Speckles will stop at nothing and will take on all corners to save his offspring.

Pre-Production

South Korean studio Dream Search C&C announced on June 5, 2015 that a sequel to The Dino King was in the works, and it was being co-produced with Chinese film studio Hengsheng Group.[2] Like its predecessor, Dino King: Journey to Fire Mountain will be in 3D and while it was expected to simultaneously open across Korean and Chinese theaters in summer of 2016,[2], was rescheduled to summer of 2017.[7] Han Sang-Ho is returning to the role of director from the first film, and the sequel will have a running time of 92 minutes.[9][10]

Following being known only by the working title of Speckles 2, the official English title to the sequel was revealed as Dino King 3D: Journey to Fire Mountain on a teaser poster. The film's plot will revolve around Speckles raising his son, who is eventually kidnapped while exploring, forcing Speckles to go on a journey across prehistoric Korea in search of his son.[3][6]

Post-Production

Michael Favelle, founder and CEO of Odin's Eye Entertainment announced in early October that the film is currently in the final stages of post-production. It was screened early in November at the American Film Market in Santa Monica[4].

Future

We are incredibly excited to this addition to our now extensive animation slate. We are always on the lookout for universally accessible franchises with strong family values and Dino King fits this brief perfectly.

— Michael Favelle, founder and CEO of Odin's Eye Entertainment.

The film's producers aim to expand the Speckles brand into a global franchise with live performances, toys, and a TV/VoD series all based around the films and its characters[4].
