Debut Trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth Shows Scarlett Johansson Kicking a Pterosaur, Shooting a Spinosaurus, and Wondering 'What the Hell Are Those?'

Universal Pictures has unveiled the first trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a thrilling glimpse into the upcoming action-adventure film slated for a July release. The trailer introduces a team led by Scarlett Johansson, venturing to a remote island. This isn't just any island; it's a forgotten research facility from the original Jurassic Park, housing dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for public display.

The official synopsis reveals: Anchored by Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali, this action-packed installment follows a team racing against time to secure genetic samples from three colossal creatures—spanning land, sea, and air. Directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and scripted by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp, the film also stars Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo.

Five years after Jurassic World Dominion, the planet struggles to accommodate dinosaurs, with surviving populations confined to isolated equatorial environments. These three colossal creatures hold the key to a revolutionary drug. Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a covert operations expert leading a top-secret mission. When Zora's operation intersects with a civilian family whose boat is capsized by aquatic dinosaurs, they're all stranded on the island, uncovering 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. The cast also includes Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Audrina Miranda as Reuben's family, along with Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, and Ed Skrein.
