'Jurassic World: Dominion' halts production due to positive COVID-19 test

Once again, production on "Jurassic World: Dominion" has been halted due to COVID-19.

"Woke up to the news we had a few positive Coronavirus tests on Jurassic World: Dominion," director Colin Trevorrow tweeted Wednesday. "All tested negative shortly after, but due to our safety protocols we’re going to pause for two weeks. Back soon."

The tweet was accompanied by a cute photo of a dinosaur wearing a face mask.
