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 showcases a team led by Scarlett Johansson venturing 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 to create a life-saving drug. Predictably, things go awry.
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 collect DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures on 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 after Jurassic World Dominion, the planet struggles to accommodate dinosaurs. Surviving dinosaurs inhabit isolated equatorial regions with climates similar to their prehistoric habitats. The three largest creatures in this tropical ecosystem hold the key to a revolutionary life-saving drug.
Academy Award nominee Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative tasked with leading a team on 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 Martin Krebs, a Big Pharma representative; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (The Lincoln Lawyer, Murder on the Orient Express) plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked family.
Luna Blaise (Manifest), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty), and Audrina Miranda (Lopez vs. Lopez) portray Reuben's family. The cast also includes Philippine Velge (Station Eleven), Bechir Sylvain (BMF), and Ed Skrein (Deadpool) 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, as confirmed by Vanity Fair, depicts Dr. Grant and two children (not featured in this film) attempting a perilous raft journey through a lagoon, narrowly avoiding a slumbering Tyrannosaurus Rex.
