The highly anticipated trailer for the latest installment of the Jurassic franchise, titled Jurassic World: Rebirth, has been unleashed, reigniting enthusiasm among fans of the iconic film series. Scheduled to hit cinemas on July 2, 2025, this new chapter arrives three years post Jurassic World: Dominion, set five years after the previous film’s events. With director Gareth Edwards at the helm and original screenwriter David Koepp returning, Rebirth promises to honor the legacy of its predecessors.
This reboot draws audiences back to the infamous Isla Nublar, where dangerous dinosaurs roam the land once again. The new film features Scarlett Johansson as Zora Bennett, a covert operations expert leading a mission to retrieve the DNA of three colossal dinosaurs. Alongside her are Mahershala Ali, who plays her righthand man Duncan Kincaid, and Jonathan Bailey portraying the paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis.
The film’s plot revolves around Zora and her team embarking on their high-stakes mission amid the treacherous landscapes of the island, which serves as the remnants of the original Jurassic Park research facility. This time, the challenges escalate when they encounter aquatic dinosaurs and must rescue a civilian family who becomes stranded after their boating mishap.
Johansson, who has long been eager to join the franchise, expressed her excitement about this project, saying, "I've been trying to get involved with this franchise for over 10 years. The incredible script and the fantastic team made this experience truly unforgettable."
Fans can expect action-packed sequences and suspenseful twists, as the film transforms classic dinosaur thrills alongside heist film elements. A new dimension to the storyline arises when the characters discover deeply hidden secrets related to the previous installments.
Supporting the core trio are actors Rupert Friend as the pharmaceutical executive Martin Krebs, who recruits Dr. Loomis for the mission, and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo as Reuben Delgado, the stranded family’s father. Additional cast members include Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Ed Skrein.
Even with past mixed reviews—Jurassic World: Dominion received only 29% on Rotten Tomatoes—the franchise continues to thrive, having grossed over one billion dollars worldwide previously. This resurgence is helped by returning franchise producers Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley, alongside Steven Spielberg as executive producer.
With its combination of thrilling dinosaur encounters, high-octane action, and intense emotional weight, Jurassic World: Rebirth aims to capture both newcomers and loyal fans of the original films. The anticipation builds as audiences gear up for this thrilling adventure, which promises to reinforce why dinosaurs hold such enduring appeal. Mark your calendars and watch the trailer to prepare for another wild ride!
