Johansson's Jurassic World Rebirth: Pterosaurs, Spinosaurs, and WTF?

By ClaireMar 13,2025

Universal Pictures has unveiled the first trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a thrilling glimpse into the upcoming action-adventure film slated for a July release.

The trailer introduces a team led by Scarlett Johansson, venturing to a remote island. This island, previously unknown, serves as a research facility from the original Jurassic Park and houses dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the main park. The mission? To collect DNA from the three largest dinosaurs on Earth—a seemingly risky endeavor with life-saving potential. The extracted DNA is intended to create a groundbreaking drug. Naturally, things don't go as planned.

Here's the official synopsis:

Starring action icon Scarlett Johansson, alongside Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed installment follows a daring team racing against time to secure DNA samples from the three most colossal dinosaurs across land, sea, and air. Also featuring Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and penned by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp.

Five years after Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecosystem struggles to accommodate dinosaurs. Surviving dinosaurs are confined to isolated equatorial regions with climates mirroring their prehistoric habitats. These three colossal creatures hold the key to a life-saving drug.

Academy Award nominee Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operations expert leading a top-secret mission. When Zora's operation intersects with a civilian family whose boat capsizes due to a dinosaur attack, they become stranded on the island, uncovering a decades-old, shocking secret.

Ali plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora's trusted leader; Emmy nominee and Olivier Award winner Jonathan Bailey portrays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Emmy nominee Rupert Friend appears as Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked family.

The cast also includes Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Audrina Miranda as Reuben's family, alongside Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, and Ed Skrein.

Last month, Jurassic World: Rebirth's writer confirmed the inclusion of a sequence from the original Jurassic Park novel, omitted from the 1993 film. This sequence, as confirmed by Vanity Fair, depicts Dr. Grant and two children (not featured in this new film) attempting a perilous raft journey through a lagoon, narrowly avoiding a slumbering Tyrannosaurus rex.
