Neal Scanlan confirms the sleeping T-Rex Rexy in the cargo container is actually constructed from an all-new practical mold that was massive in scale and allowed the actors to fully interact with the King of the Dinosaurs, he revealed: "We built the full-size T-Rex with twenty of the largest panels that we could find and actually, that's not very big at all, they're about A1 size. It felt sort of like a one-foot tile, that was about the size that we could make. So, it was a three-dimensional jigsaw that clipped together to create this full-size physical form, which we then molded and then cast out in essentially a sculpting medium, so that we can get into it a second time and fully detail and bring out all the aspects. So, it was it was essentially the model that everybody knows, with the tweaks that the guys at ILM wanted to do, plus a little bit more we did ourselves in order to sort of give us a little bit more expression based on the scene that we knew she was in because the thing about practical effects, what we try do, in certainly a scene like that, we knew the T-Rex was in a container. We knew that it was sedated, lying down, so the physical shape, the compression of the foam and all of those things, we sculpted a lot of that into it, just so that it feels like it really is sitting in that environment and then, because it was in the container, we knew that we could build that high up on the platform. So, the container was actually a lightweight mimic and the animatronic sat on top and we were below it, so it allowed us to take the opportunity of bringing it to life without getting involved with very heavy hydraulics or electric motors. We were able to do mostly through physical performance again, but by effectively attaching a lot of puppeteers to it and using human beings to move Rexy."
