There are lots or returning franchises coming to the screen, many taking place with the return of the original cast. Our team at IPM has put together some of our favourite actors returning to their original roles in up-coming and recent films!

It has just been announced, to the excitement of all dino fans, that the  original cast of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park will reprise their roles in Jurassic World 3. For the third instalment in this popular sequel franchise, a trio of characters will return from the 1993 Blockbuster classic to remind audiences where it all started!
Jeff Goldblum is set to return again, like he did last year in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. This will mark the third reprisal of this character. Goldblum already returned to his role as Dr. Ian Malcolm in 1997’s The Lost World: Jurassic Park.
The highly anticipated 2021 movie will also see Sam Neill's Dr Alan Grant and Laura Dern's Dr Ellie Sattler return after what will be two decades out of the prehistoric limelight. The last time we saw these characters was in 2001's Jurassic Park III.
 
It looks like Jurassic World 3 is following in the footsteps of Top Gun: Maverick, the sequel to the 1986 military drama Top Gun. Scheduled to hit cinemas in 2020, the sequel is named after Tom Cruise’s character, Maverick, who, of course, will be returning to the screen after over 30 years.
What would Top Gun be without it’s other main player though? Thankfully, Val Kilmer is returning to his role as Tom “Iceman” Kazansky and they’ll be joined in the sky with some new faces.

​We love when an old character is brought back after so many years and so we’re sad to see Sylvester Stallone finally hang his gloves up after his unexpected revisit to the role of Rocky in the Creed sequel. The continuation of the Rocky saga sees the now retired Rocky appearing as the trainer for Adonis Creed, the son of his deceased rival, Apollo.
In 2016, Stallone received an Oscar nomination for best supporting actor for his reprisal of Rocky in Creed I. This was 39 years after the actor was nominated for best lead actor for his portrayal of the same character, setting a record for most years between nominations for playing the same role!
​The late Leonard Nimoy also surprised audiences, particularly long-time fans, with continuing performances of Spock in the 2013 Star Trek film, Star Trek: Into Darkness. Other than a cameo in the 2009 Star Trek reboot, his 2013 reprisal of Spock marked over 20 years since we last saw Nimoy in this role.

Harrison Ford is no stranger to a his action films. After bringing back one of his most beloved roles, Han Solo, in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Ford resurrected Rick Deckard, in the 2017 Blade Runner sequel, Blade Runner 2049. In both cases it had been at least 30 years since the actor had played these characters. Ford commented on this in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
 “Just by acknowledging it and not running away from the reality of the passage of time, it becomes interesting to play that character again”.
