It always goes so terribly, terribly wrong. The latest trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth starts by showing us a little bit of how: scientists at a dinosaur research facility pushing alarms, blaring red lights, that one guy who doesn’t make it through the security door on time. That one guy. There’s always one.
Of course, people go back to the island anyway.
This time, it’s Scarlett Johansson as Zora, a “skilled covert operations expert” who leads a team to this other island full of the most dangerous dinosaurs. They’re going to do some very important science involving dino DNA, “the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind,” as the synopsis explains. With her is Jonathan Bailey (doing science) and Mahershala Ali (doing the same stuff as Zora). The presence of a family of civilians—who, of course, befriend a cute lil dino pal—further complicates their mission.
Also, there are whale dinos now. And also “a sinister, shocking discovery that has been hidden from the world for decades.”
Jurassic World Rebirth has a screenplay by David Koepp, who wrote the original Jurassic Park adaptation, and is directed by Rogue One’s Gareth Edwards. Naturally, it also stars a lot of CGI dinosaurs. And it includes a scene from Michael Crichton’s original novel—the rafting sequence, which you can see part of in this trailer. Neat!
We root for the dinosaurs staring July 2nd.[end-mark]
