Mercedes Benz has revealed more info on their involvement in the new Hollywood movie Jurassic World.
The latest instalment of the Jurassic Park franchise that is set to release next month features a variety of Mercedes vehicles including the G-Class, G 63 AMG 6×6, Sprinter and Unimog. Another surprise is that the movie will also feature the new GLE Coupe as well. This car was filmed for the movie secretly as the crossover was not revealed then.
Mercedes’ Vice President of Marketing, Dr. Jens Thiemer,said “In 1997 the Mercedes-Benz M-Class made its first official appearance in the Hollywood Blockbuster ‘The Lost World: Jurassic Park’. Today, 18 years later, another Mercedes-Benz car will debut in a significant role in the latest installment of the groundbreaking Jurassic Park series named Jurassic World: the new GLE Coupe.” The executive added, “We are delighted to continue our partnership with a multitude of Mercedes-Benz vehicles and will promote the film and our cars with many exciting global marketing activities.”
The Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 AMG Coupé makes its film debut as the official car of Jurassic World operations manager Claire, played by Bryce Dallas Howard. When Claire must confront a crisis well beyond what she can handle alone, she takes the new Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupé (showcasing its off-road capabilities) and joins behavioral researcher Owen (Chris Pratt) on a mission in the lush jungle of Isla Nublar.
In addition Owen is seen piloting the G-Class, the patriarch of all Mercedes-Benz SUVs. The film also features the Unimog, cast as a dinosaur ambulance, as well as a G 63 AMG 6×6 and various Sprinter models. “The fleet of Mercedes Benz vehicles fit perfectly into Jurassic World. They are classy, sophisticated, and sexy — exactly what would exist in a modern international theme park”, says producer Frank Marshall.
Jurassic World releases on June 12th and stars Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard.
