'Jurassic World' meets 'American Ninja Warrior' in epic crossover obstacle course
Watch Next

American Ninja Warrior is going old school – we're talking Cretaceous, Mesozoic, Jurassic. The NBC show will partner with Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom for a special themed episode on June 6.

In honor of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard will host the episode, and yes, they'll be bringing some prehistoric reptiles with them.

In addition to the usual physical rigor of American Ninja Warrior, contestants will have to reckon with animatronic (but highly realistic) dinosaurs at every turn. It's about as real as Jurassic World gets (and maybe an idea for a sequel?).

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom hits theaters June 22.
