New dinosaur projects on television



In the article about "'Beasts' bests 'Croc' in battle for audience" at:
http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20011227/en/television-beasts_1.html
there is some news of future projects:

    "Dinosaurs" allowed Haines to strike out on 
    his own as a freelance executive producer after
    14 years with the BBC. While "Beasts" was in 
    production, he set up the Bob Hoskins starrer 
    "Lost Worlds" for the BBC, which he describes
    as "Edwardians running away from an allosaurus
    in 1908."

    He also recently started his own London-based 
    shingle, Impossible Pictures, with producer/
    partner Jasper James. The pair have an 
    $8 million slate of dinosaur projects, kicking 
    off with "Hunt for Giant Claw" -- a rare 
    therizinosaurus -- with the BBC and Discovery.

Richard Travsky was kind enough to supply us with news of "Lost Worlds" in 
February:
