Universal unveils the first trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a thrilling glimpse into this highly anticipated July release.
The trailer introduces Scarlett Johansson's team, venturing to a remote island. This island, previously a research facility for the original Jurassic Park, houses dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the main park. Their mission? To collect DNA from the three largest dinosaurs on Earth, for a potentially life-saving drug. Predictably, things go awry.
Here's the official synopsis:
Led by action icon Scarlett Johansson, alongside Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed adventure follows a daring team racing to acquire DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures – land, sea, and air. Also starring Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and scripted by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp.
Five years post-Jurassic World Dominion, the planet struggles to accommodate dinosaurs. Survivors reside in isolated equatorial regions mimicking their ancient habitats. The three largest creatures within this tropical ecosystem hold the key to a revolutionary life-saving drug.
Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative leading a top-secret mission. When Zora's operation intersects with a 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 as crew members.

Last month, the film's writer confirmed the inclusion of a sequence from the original Jurassic Park novel, omitted from the 1993 film. This sequence, as confirmed by Vanity Fair, depicts Dr. Grant and two children (not featured in this film) attempting a perilous raft journey through a lagoon, narrowly avoiding a sleeping Tyrannosaurus rex.
