Fiyero, I don’t think we’re in Oz anymore.
After making an entrance as the Winkie Prince in last year’s thrillifying Wicked, Jonathan Bailey is trading dancing (through life) for dinosaurs in the anticipated first trailer for the latest chapter in the Jurassic Park film series – Jurassic World Rebirth.
As paleontologist Henry Loomis, alongside Scarlett Johansson‘s covert operations expert Zora Bennett and Marhersha Ali‘s team leader Duncan Kincaid, Jurassic World Rebirth picks up five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, with the planet’s environment showing itself to be mainly inhospitable to dinosaurs. The survivors now live in remote tropical regions with conditions similar to those in which they were formerly abundant. Bennett is hired to work with both Loomis and Kincaid on a top-secret mission. Their goal is to locate the three largest creatures within the tropics and acquire their DNA, which contains the key to a drug that will miraculously save human lives.
The team crosses paths with a civilian family whose boating adventure was overturned by roving aquatic dinosaurs, leaving them all stranded on an island. Once the site of Jurassic Park’s research laboratory, the group discovers that the island is home to failed, mutated dinosaurs which have thrived there for decades.
Written by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp and directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, The Creator), Jurassic World Rebirth looks to set a new era for the enduring series as it moves in an ingenious new direction.
Jurassic World Rebirth is set to stalk Australian theatres from July 3rd, 2025.
