Studios are ramping up promotion for their big summer blockbusters. Yesterday it was Disney and Marvel Studios teasing The Fantastic Four. Today it’s Universal Studios releasing the first full trailer for “Jurassic World Rebirth”, the seventh feature film in the Jurassic Park franchise. While the previous two films made a lot of money, they left a lot to be desired. Thankfully “Rebirth” gives us reasons to be optimistic starting with the first trailer.
“Rebirth” is a standalone sequel to 2022’s “Jurassic World Dominion”. It’s story takes place five years after “Dominion” and follows a top-secret mission back to the island of Jurassic Park. Team leader Duncan Kincaid (Mahershala Ali), Covert Operative Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson), and paleontologist Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey) are among the group searching for DNA that can be used in a number of medical cures. Of course they find much more than they bargained for mostly in the form a dangerous mutated dinosaurs.
The cast is a good one and helps make the film intriguing. But what excites me most is Gareth Edwards directing. He has delivered big with each of his last three films, “Godzilla” (2014), “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” (2016), and “The Creator” (2023). After seeing the new trailer, there’s no reason to believe he won’t deliver once again.
“Jurassic World Rebirth” tromps into theaters on July 2nd. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
Keith & the Movies 
Ooh yep! And no Chris Pratt and the silly woman in stilettos! I’m in!
I actually like Pratt but he couldn’t make those last two movies work. This one looks and feels different. I like it!
I don’t know. It looks fine, but it seems to me that they’ve run of ideas with Jurassic Park. Dominion, even though it made a billion dollars, was an absolute wreck of a movie. I’ll give Gareth Edwards the benefit of the doubt, but this is a franchise that really needs some serious retooling.
I didn’t like either of the previous two movies. But I do like Edwards. And I found this trailer to be pretty fun. Here’s hoping the deliver.
I saw this earlier today. Looks kinda cool. I just hope they don’t do any sequels for a while after this one. It looks fun.
It does look fun. And I like the standalone sequel idea.
Yes, the cast compels me.
Me too. I’ll go see it.
Yes i will be seeing this. it’s not easy to say no to a jungle adventure movie
LOL. Right? I’m looking forward to it as well.
