First Look at ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’
Preview:
- The first images of ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ are online.
- Scarlett Johansson, ‘Bridgerton’s Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali lead the cast.
- Gareth Edwards is in the director’s chair.
While ‘Jurassic World Dominion’ in 2022 seemed to signal the end for the franchise that was spawned way back in 1993 with ‘Jurassic Park,’ turns out it was less of an extinction-level event and more of a brief pause between eras.
Because, far from letting a cash dinosaur just wither into nothingness, Universal began making plans for another movie featuring giant beasties and the humans who want to help, hunt or otherwise avoid being snack food last year.
What is now officially titled ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ has come together quickly, and now with shooting still in progress, we have the first look at some of the human characters including those played by Scarlett Johansson, ‘Bridgerton’s Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali.

What’s the story of ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’?
(L to R) Jonathan Bailey as paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis and Scarlett Johansson as skilled covert operations expert Zora Bennett in ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’, directed by Gareth Edwards.
Here’s the official synopsis for the new movie:
“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.”
Who is who in ‘Jurassic World Rebirth?
Mahershala Ali is Duncan Kincaid in ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’, directed by Gareth Edwards.
Johansson is playing 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.

Bailey (who will also be seen in Universal’s ‘Wicked’ this Thanksgiving) plays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis.
Rupert Friend (last seen in ‘Asteroid City’) appears as Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs.
Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (‘The Lincoln Lawyer’) plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked civilian family.
The cast also includes Luna Blaise, David Iacono and Audrina Miranda as Reuben’s family. And, as members of Zora and Krebs’ crews, Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain and Ed Skrein.
Who is making ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’?
‘The Creator’ director Gareth Edwards.
With longtime producers Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley returning to shepherd the new movie (and original ‘Park’ director Steven Spielberg as an executive producer as usual), the first other major player hired was scriptwriter David Koepp.
He, of course, wrote the first two ‘Jurassic’ movies, working from the concepts and characters originally created by novelist Michael Crichton.
Directing this time is Gareth Edwards, who is best known for the likes of ‘Monsters’ in 2010, 2014’s ‘Godzilla,’ ‘2016’s ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ and, most recently, last year’s sci-fi pic ‘The Creator.’
When will ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ be in theaters?
Amblin and Universal have scheduled the new ‘Jurassic’ outing for release on July 2nd, 2025.
‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ is directed by Gareth Edwards.
