pair have chemistry to spare, as witnessed in both Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park III, exchanging glances and flirtations which suggests there\u2019s still something between them.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the film, the tension builds\u2026 until Alan and Ellie finally share a kiss!<\/p>\n<p>After that, it\u2019s not made entirely clear whether they are now back as a couple, although we do get a hint that they might now be living together, making fans\u2019 dreams of a happy ending for Alan and Ellie finally come true almost 30 years after the original film.<\/p>\n<p>From actor Sam Neill\u2019s perspective, it\u2019s clear that Alan still loves Ellie, as he told <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/sam-neill-jurassic-park-interview-jurassic-world-domini-1849010801&quot;\">Gizmodo<\/a> in a recent interview.<\/p>\n<p>He said:\u00a0\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s changed at all. He\u2019s just older and grumpier now. But I don\u2019t think people do change very much over the years, and I\u2019m just more familiar with him now than I was. And I enjoyed being back in his company. It\u2019s interesting. You don\u2019t get many chances to play one character over 30 years. That\u2019s pretty strange, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I think it\u2019s true for all three of those legacy characters, [myself], Laura, and Jeff. Jeff\u2019s character is still really annoying and won\u2019t shut up, and Alan finds him infuriating. He\u2019s still hopelessly in love with Ellie. So things haven\u2019t changed that much. They\u2019re just older and not much wiser.\u201d<\/p> <p>We\u2019re sure we may get further confirmation on Alan and Ellie\u2019s relationship status as the cast and creatives talk about the film\u2019s ending in the weeks and months to come, but for now it certainly seems our favourite palaeontologists are back together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jurassic World Dominion is in UK cinemas now.
