Universal unveils the first trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, delivering a thrilling glimpse into this highly anticipated action film's July release.
The trailer (see below) introduces Scarlett Johansson's team, venturing to a remote island. This island houses dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the original park and, surprisingly, serves as the original Jurassic Park's research facility.
The mission? To extract DNA from the world's three largest dinosaurs for a potentially 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 installment follows a daring team racing against time to secure DNA samples from three colossal creatures—land, sea, and air. Also starring Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and scripted by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp.
Five years post-Jurassic World Dominion, the planet struggles to accommodate dinosaurs. Survivors reside in isolated equatorial zones mirroring their prehistoric habitats. These three behemoths hold the key to a revolutionary life-saving drug.
Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative leading a top-secret mission. Her operation intersects with a family whose boat capsizes due to aquatic dinosaurs, stranding them on the island. There, they uncover a decades-old, shocking secret.
Ali plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora's trusted leader; Jonathan Bailey portrays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Rupert Friend is Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked family.
Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Audrina Miranda portray Reuben's family. The cast also includes Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, and Ed Skrein as members of Zora and Krebs' teams.

Last month, the film's writer confirmed the inclusion of 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 present in this film) attempting—and failing—to navigate a lagoon in a raft without disturbing a sleeping Tyrannosaurus rex.
