Universal unveils 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 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 objective? To acquire DNA from the three largest dinosaurs to develop a life-saving drug. Naturally, things don't go as planned.
The official synopsis reveals:
Starring action icon Scarlett Johansson, rising star Jonathan Bailey, and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed installment follows a daring team racing against time to collect DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures 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), with a screenplay by original Jurassic Park writer David Koepp.
Five years post-Jurassic World Dominion, the planet struggles to accommodate dinosaurs, with surviving populations confined to isolated equatorial regions. These three behemoths hold the key to a revolutionary drug with the potential to save countless lives.
Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative leading a clandestine mission. Their operation unexpectedly intersects with a family whose boat is capsized by 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 (Bridgerton) is paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Rupert Friend (Homeland) portrays Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (The Lincoln Lawyer) plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked family.
The cast also includes Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Audrina Miranda as Reuben's family, along with 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 scene from the original Jurassic Park novel, omitted from the 1993 film. This sequence, as confirmed by Vanity Fair, depicts Dr. Grant and two children (absent from this film) attempting a perilous raft journey through a lagoon, narrowly avoiding a sleeping Tyrannosaurus rex.
