Dr. Henry Wu

Dr. Henry Wu or Henry Wu, Dr. Wu or just Wu, is the secondary antagonist of the Jurassic Park-franchise and the Jurassic World-trilogy.

Wu is a major protagonist of the novel-duology by Michael Crichton; serving as a major protagonist in the first book and as a posthumous character of it's 1995-sequel Jurassic Park: The Lost World. He is also the secondary antagonist of the movie-franchise; serving as a minor protagonist of the original 1993-movie Jurassic Park, as an unseen antagonist of it's 1997-sequel The Lost World and it's 2001-sequel Jurassic Park III and as a major antagonist in both the 2015-movie Jurassic World and of it's 2018-sequel Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. He is also the main antagonist of the Dreamworks/Netflix-series Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous; serving as a minor antagonist of season 1 and 2, as the secondary antagonist of season 3, and as an unseen antagonist of season 4 and season 5, the series' final season. Wu also serves as a supporting antagonist of the 2022-movie Jurassic World: Dominion. He is also the unseen overarching antagonist of the fanmade-version of the Jurassic World-trilogy; serving as the unseen overarching antagonist of the fanmade-movie Jurassic World: Reunion. He is also the overarching antagonist of the comic Jurassic Park: Redemption, a minor character of Jurassic Park: Trespasser and a supporting character of Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, Jurassic Park: Builder, Jurassic World: The Game, Jurassic World: Evolution and Jurassic World: Evolution 2.

Wu is a Chinese-American scientist who becomes a villain from the 1995 movie Jurassic Park: The Lost World, despite Wu being just an unseen antagonist there. He probably becomes a villain, because he was furious that his beloved boss John Hammond died. However, Wu is only a rather important villain in the movies and in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous but not in the books. John Hammond is a major antagonist in the books.

Wu's transformation from hero to villain is exactly the opposite of the situation of John Hammond who was firstly a villain in the books by Michael Crichton but becoming a hero in the movies.

In Jurassic World from 2015, Wu is the right-hand-man of Commander Vic Hoskins who's the secondary antagonist of the movie, and together, they made the films' main antagonist; The Indominus Rex. In it's sequel from 2018, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Wu works for Eli Mills portrayed by Rafe Spall who's the secondary antagonist of the movie, and together they make plans to make another more dangerous dinosaur than the Indominus Rex called The Indoraptor, who's the main antagonist of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. However, it's clear Wu loves working for Commander Vic Hoskins more then working for Hoskins' right-hand Eli Mills, because Mills was a lot worse than Hoskins.

In Jurassic World: Dominion, Wu served as the third-in-command to Lewis Dodgson with Soyona Santos as the second-in-command, until Wu redeems himself at the end of the movie to become a hero instead of cold-hearted villain.

In the comic Jurassic World: Redemption, Wu serves as the overarching antagonist until he ends up to be killed by Peter Ludlow (IDW), a far more ruthless version of Peter Ludlow, and his right-hand-man Lewis Dodgson (IDW), a different version of Lewis Dodgson.

In the movies, Wu was portrayed by the Asian actor BD Wong, and in Camp Cretaceous, the Chinese scientist was portrayed by voice-actor Greg Chun.
