Prior to the two months the team has spent in Hawaii, they also shot scenes on the sound stages in London for the first few months of production.

Once shooting all the remaining scenes is completed, the film will then head to post-production, during which editing as well as the addition of dialog are accomplished in the studio.

The upcoming "Jurassic World" sequel is titled "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom," and it will be picking up after the events the transpired in the first film reboot of the "Jurassic Park" franchise. However, specific plot details are still being kept under wraps.

In "Fallen Kingdom," Hollywood actors Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard will be reprising their protagonist roles in "Jurassic World" such as Owen Grady and Claire Dearing, respectively.

Also returning for the sequel is BD Wong who portrayed geneticist Henry Wu in the original "Jurassic Park" franchise and in the first film reboot. Jeff Goldblum will also reprise his role as mathematician Ian Malcolm, who appeared in the 1997 movie "'The Lost World: Jurassic Park."

With filming confirmed to wrap soon, there are speculations over when the first teaser trailer for "Fallen Kingdom" will be unveiled, with some suggesting that it could premiere at the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con scheduled to take place later this month.

"Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom," directed by J.A. Bayona, is set to hit theaters on June 22, 2018.
