9. What Is Doctor Wu's Goal?

Speaking of genetically modified dinosaurs, we have to discuss the man responsible for all of the chaos. Doctor Henry Wu.

Fallen Kingdom marks Wu's third appearance in the franchise, having appeared in both Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. We learned in Jurassic World that the modifications made to the Indominus’ genome were deliberate, as Wu wanted created a killing machine, and that he was also in cahoots with the villainous Hoskins.

In Fallen Kingdom he's back up to his old tricks, helping Eli Mills with his plan to auction off the beasts. Unfortunately, it's not made clear why he’s doing these things, as this is never really discussed in either of the films. Is his goal simply to make a lot of money, or does he have ulterior motives?

While it’s pretty clear that Wu is not a good person, he did show a shred of decency in Fallen Kingdom when trying to talk Mills out of selling the prototype Indoraptor, because he's at least aware that such an animal in the wild could be very dangerous. After all the chaos caused by the beast, what will Wu's next move be? Will we finally learn of his true motives, or will he perhaps do the right thing and help humankind put a stop to these beasts?
