Summer 2025 is set to amplify theaters with roars and awe as Jurassic World Rebirth revives the iconic dinosaur franchise. Debuting July 2, this seventh installment continues the legacy of Jurassic Park/Dominion, directed by Gareth Edwards (Godzilla) and penned by David Koepp — co-writer of the original Jurassic Park.

The film introduces a dynamic trio: Scarlett Johansson as covert ops expert Zora Bennett, Mahershala Ali as team leader Duncan Kincaid, and Jonathan Bailey as paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis. Their mission leads them to the secluded Isle Saint-Hubert in the Atlantic Ocean — a former InGen dinosaur testing ground

They’re tasked with finding the planet’s three largest remaining prehistoric creatures — land, sea, and air species — only to discover genetically mutated dinos, including the horrifying Distortus rex, a six-limbed T-Rex evocative of H.R. Giger’s biomechanical nightmares 

Jurassic World Rebirth pledges to deliver the cinematic grandeur, scientific wonder, and primal terror fans crave. With a $180 million budget, vibrant locales in Thailand, Malta, and the UK, and a score by Alexandre Desplat paired with John Mathieson’s cinematography, the production honors the original’s spirit .

The early trailers hint at a potent mix of nostalgia and evolution — familiar dino mayhem alongside new emotional stakes and high-tech thrills. The team’s immersion in a primordial environment, edged with genetic unpredictability, promises a tense, immersive experience.

This July, Jurassic World Rebirth aims to reconnect audiences — from families and genre fans to franchise loyalists — with the epic spectacle of humans confronting ancient predators on a grander scale. The box-office debut will reveal if the film lives up to expectations, but for now, it stands as the summer’s most anticipated dinosaur event.
