In a rare reversal of Hollywood's usual circumstances, the studio objected, and finally decided to proceed on the project without Crichton's direct creative involvement.Ĭongo's adaptation spent the next few years being teased as coming soon, then falling back into development hell, before Jurassic Park's smash success pushed Fox to finally make the film happen. Yet, Crichton and company were unable to find a way that using a real gorilla in the film would be possible, so he eventually recommended to Fox that they cancel the project. Crichton felt that no person in a gorilla suit or animatronic creation could properly convince the audience Amy was a real gorilla, and that it would take them out of Congo's story.
