Dinosaurs Attack Los Angeles? Warner Bros. Pick Up Sci-Fi Action Flick: 3 Other Film Attacks On Los Angeles

Deadline reported that Warner Bros. may be bringing some colossal Triassic damage to the City of Angels. Warner Bros. has purchased a sci-fi action pitch about dinosaurs attacking modern day Los Angeles.

While dinosaurs attacking Los Angeles is a new concept, dinosaurs in California isn't anything new. In The Lost World: Jurassic Park, a Tyrannosaurus breaks loose in San Diego.

Credited on IMDB as a director, writer and editor, Clisham has directed, as well as wrote a short called The Night Before Avatar, and TV series, Assorted Nightmares. Clisham will team up with Mike Bayman, who will be co-writing the script for the Jurassic thriller.
