Universal unveils the debut trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a captivating glimpse into the highly anticipated 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. Predictably, the mission takes an unexpected turn.
Here's the official synopsis:
Led by action icon Scarlett Johansson, alongside rising star Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this thrilling installment follows a daring team racing against time to collect DNA samples from the three most 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, leaving them confined to isolated equatorial regions with suitable climates. These three behemoths hold the key to a revolutionary drug with life-saving potential.
Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative leading a clandestine mission. Their operation intersects with a civilian 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 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. Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, and Ed Skrein also star.
