Toward the beginning of The Lost World: Jurassic Park, the 1997 sequel to the classic Steven Spielberg film Jurassic Park, Jeff Goldblum’s character Ian Malcolm delivers one of the franchise’s most iconic lines. “Yeah. ‘Ooh, ah,’ that’s how it always starts,” he tells his more novice companions as a herd of Stegosauruses roams past. “But then later there’s running and screaming.”

Just over twenty years later, the sentiments behind this line could very well apply to Goldblum’s latest role in the second season finale of Syfy’s depraved action-comedy series Happy!

“As an ‘80s sci-fi kid, Goldblum was pretty much god to me,” Brian Taylor — writer, executive producer and occasional episode director of Happy! — tells Den of Geek. “So when it came time to cast this particular role, we had to shoot for the clouds to get him.”

The specifics of the 66-year-old performer’s role are still being kept under wraps, but two things are clear. First, all of the eclecticism and eccentricities of Goldblum’s body of work will be on full display when the episode, “Resurrection,” airs next Wednesday night. And second? True to Malcolm’s classic line from The Lost World, and the seemingly endless torrent of shamelessly vile humor that Happy! routinely exhibits, there’s going to be plenty of “running and screaming” when he shows up.
