>> the sequel starts filming next month. bryce is already losing sleep over it. >> i did some press and had like a 15-minute nap, lying down, don't dream about "jurassic," just nap, just rest, don't think about it. >> maybe she is thinking about chris pratt. because chris pratt will be back as well. the script is kept under wraps but the director says it'll be darker than the last one. yes to that. in our "entertainment tonight" which instrument plays six instruments? the answer is coming up next.
