Jurassic Park, a blockbuster film from the 90s that has become iconic in the history of cinema, aimed high under the direction of Steven Spielberg. The main character, Dr. Alan Grant, was played by Sam Neill, a British-New Zealander whose distinct New Zealand accent in the original version did not go unnoticed. Interestingly, Neill’s character was supposed to be American, but Spielberg was unsure about the direction the actor should take, as revealed in an interview with Vanity Fair.
