Which actor played Sarah Harding in The Lost World: Jurassic Park? Julianne Moore played her.

Sarah Harding is a behavioral paleontologist who studies animals in the field and joins the expedition to Isla Sorna. Moore portrays her as scientifically capable, physically daring, and willing to challenge Ian Malcolm when the mission becomes more dangerous than expected.

The character originated in Michael Crichton’s 1995 novel The Lost World, where she is an important member of the research effort. For the 1997 film, Steven Spielberg and the filmmakers developed the role with Moore in mind. Sarah’s expertise helps distinguish her from the first film’s principal scientists: Alan Grant is a paleontologist focused on dinosaurs, while Ellie Sattler is a paleobotanist.

A frequent mix-up is Laura Dern, who played Ellie Sattler in Jurassic Park, or Ariana Richards, who played Lex Murphy in both of the first two films. Sarah Harding is also not Téa Leoni’s Amanda Kirby, a character introduced in Jurassic Park III.
