Universal unveils the first trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a thrilling glimpse into this highly anticipated action film, slated for a July release.
The trailer introduces Scarlett Johansson's team, embarking on a mission to a remote island. This island, previously a research facility for the original Jurassic Park, houses dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the main park. Their mission? To obtain DNA from the three largest dinosaurs on Earth, crucial for developing a life-saving drug. Naturally, things don't go as planned.
Here's the official synopsis:
Led by action icon Scarlett Johansson, alongside rising star Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed adventure follows a daring team racing against time to collect DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures – land, sea, and air. Featuring acclaimed international actors Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by the visually gifted Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) from a script 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 similar to their prehistoric habitats. The three largest creatures in this tropical biosphere hold the key to a revolutionary, life-saving drug.
Academy Award nominee Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative leading a top-secret mission to acquire genetic material. When Zora's operation intersects with a family whose boat is capsized by aquatic dinosaurs, they find themselves stranded on the island, uncovering a decades-old, shocking secret.
Ali plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora's trusted team leader; Emmy nominee and Olivier Award winner Jonathan Bailey (Wicked, Bridgerton) portrays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Emmy nominee Rupert Friend (Homeland, Obi-Wan Kenobi) is Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (The Lincoln Lawyer, Murder on the Orient Express) plays Reuben Delgado, father of the shipwrecked family.
The cast also includes Luna Blaise (Manifest), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty), and Audrina Miranda (Lopez vs. Lopez) as Reuben's family. Philippine Velge (Station Eleven), Bechir Sylvain (BMF), and Ed Skrein (Deadpool) round out the cast as members of Zora and Krebs' crews.

Last month, the screenwriter confirmed Jurassic World: Rebirth includes a sequence from the original Jurassic Park novel, omitted from the 1993 film. This sequence, confirmed by Vanity Fair, depicts Dr. Grant and two children (not featured in the new film) attempting a perilous raft journey across a lagoon, narrowly avoiding a sleeping Tyrannosaurus Rex.
