Universal has unveiled the first trailer for the much-anticipated action film, *Jurassic World Rebirth*, set to hit theaters in July. The trailer provides an exciting glimpse into the film, which follows a team led by Scarlett Johansson as they venture to a remote island. This island, home to dinosaurs considered too dangerous for the original park, also serves as a hidden research facility from the original Jurassic Park.
The plot revolves around a daring mission to collect DNA from the eggs of the world's three largest dinosaurs. This genetic material is crucial for developing a groundbreaking drug that could save countless lives. However, as is often the case in the *Jurassic* universe, the mission quickly spirals out of control.Here's the official synopsis:
Anchored by iconic action superstar Scarlett Johansson, breakthrough talent Jonathan Bailey, and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed new chapter follows an intrepid team racing to secure DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures across land, sea, and air. The film also stars acclaimed international actors Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and is directed by the dynamic visualist Gareth Edwards (known for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story). The screenplay is penned by the original Jurassic Park screenwriter, David Koepp.
Set five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecology has largely rejected dinosaurs, confining them to isolated equatorial environments that mimic their ancient habitats. Within this tropical biosphere, the three most colossal creatures hold the key to a drug that promises miraculous life-saving benefits for humanity.
Academy Award nominee Scarlett Johansson stars as Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operations expert tasked with leading a team on a top-secret mission to secure genetic material from the world's three largest dinosaurs. When Zora's operation crosses paths with a civilian family whose boating trip was disrupted by marauding aquatic dinosaurs, they find themselves stranded on an island. There, they uncover a sinister and shocking secret that has been hidden from the world for decades.
Mahershala Ali plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora's most trusted team leader. Emmy nominee and Olivier Award winner Jonathan Bailey (known for Wicked and Bridgerton) portrays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis. Emmy nominee Rupert Friend (from Homeland and Obi-Wan Kenobi) plays Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs, and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (seen in The Lincoln Lawyer and Murder on the Orient Express) portrays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked civilian family.
The cast is rounded out by Luna Blaise (Manifest), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty), and Audrina Miranda (Lopez vs. Lopez) as Reuben's family. The film also features Philippine Velge (Station Eleven), Bechir Sylvain (BMF), and Ed Skrein (Deadpool) as members of Zora and Krebs' crews.

Last month, the writer of Jurassic World Rebirth confirmed that the film includes a sequence from the first Jurassic Park novel that was omitted from the 1993 film. This sequence features Dr. Grant and two children (not characters in the new movie) attempting to drift through a lagoon in a rubber raft without disturbing a sleeping Tyrannosaurus rex. Their attempt fails, leading to a frantic paddle for survival, as confirmed by Vanity Fair.
