Jurassic World Rebirth: Johansson Battles Beasts in Thrilling Trailer

Universal unveils the first trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a thrilling glimpse into this highly anticipated July release.

The trailer showcases Scarlett Johansson leading a team to a remote island, a former research facility and home to dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the original park. Their mission: to collect DNA from the three largest dinosaurs to create a life-saving drug. Predictably, things go awry.

Here's the official synopsis:

Led by action star Scarlett Johansson, alongside Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed adventure follows a team racing to obtain DNA samples from the three most colossal dinosaurs on land, sea, and air. Also starring Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and directed by Gareth Edwards ( Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) from a script by David Koepp (original Jurassic Park screenwriter), the film unfolds five years after Jurassic World Dominion. The planet's ecology struggles to support the remaining dinosaurs, confined to isolated equatorial regions. These three massive creatures hold the key to a revolutionary life-saving drug.

Johansson portrays covert operations expert Zora Bennett, tasked with leading a mission to secure the genetic material. Their operation intersects with a family whose boat is capsized by aquatic dinosaurs, stranding them on the island and uncovering a decades-old, sinister 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.

The cast also includes Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Audrina Miranda as Reuben's family, along with Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, and Ed Skrein as members of Zora and Krebs' teams.
