We’re set for another dinosaur adventure next year with Jurassic World: Rebirth, the latest movie in the franchise, and this time we’re promised ‘a new era’.
Check out the official synopsis here…
Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet’s ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Those remaining exist in isolated equatorial environments with climates resembling the one in which they once thrived. The three most colossal creatures within that tropical biosphere hold the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind.
Jurassic World: Rebirth boasts some impressive credits. It’s being directed by Gareth Edwards (The Creator, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and the script has been penned by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp (you can read our exclusive interview with him here, where he talks about his novels and adapting them for the screen).
It stars Scarlett Johansson as skilled covert operations expert Zora Bennett, contracted to lead a skilled team on a top-secret mission to secure genetic material from the world’s three most massive dinosaurs. When Zora’s operation intersects with a civilian family whose boating expedition was capsized by marauding aquatic dinos, they all find themselves stranded on an island where they come face-to-face with a sinister, shocking discovery that’s been hidden from the world for decades.
It also stars Mahershala Ali, who plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora’s most trusted team leader as well as Jonathan Bailey (Wicked, Bridgerton) who plays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis, Rupert Friend (Homeland, Obi-Wan Kenobi) as Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (The Lincoln Lawyer, Murder on the Orient Express) as Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked civilian family.
They star alongside Luna Blaise (Manifest), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty) and Audrina Miranda (Lopez vs. Lopez) as Reuben’s family. The film also features, as members of Zora and Krebs’ crews, Philippine Velge (Station Eleven), Bechir Sylvain (BMF) and Ed Skrein (Deadpool).
Jurassic World: Rebirth is set to be released in cinemas in July 2025
