Universal has unveiled the thrilling debut trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth, providing fans with an exciting glimpse into the highly anticipated action movie set to hit theaters in July. The trailer, showcased below, introduces a team led by the iconic Scarlett Johansson as they embark on a mission to a remote island. This island, home to dinosaurs considered too perilous for the original park, also serves as a hidden research facility from the first Jurassic Park.
The plot centers on a daring endeavor to extract DNA from the eggs of the world's three largest dinosaurs. This genetic material is crucial for developing a groundbreaking drug that promises to save countless lives. However, as is often the case in such adventures, the plan quickly goes awry.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Anchored by iconic action superstar Scarlett Johansson, breakthrough talent Jonathan Bailey, and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed new chapter follows an intrepid team racing to secure DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures across land, sea, and air. The film also stars acclaimed international actors Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and is directed by the dynamic visualist Gareth Edwards (known for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) from a script penned by the original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp.
Set five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs, with the remaining ones surviving in isolated equatorial environments that mimic their ancient habitats. The three largest creatures in this tropical biosphere hold the key to a drug that could offer miraculous life-saving benefits to humanity.
Academy Award nominee Scarlett Johansson stars as skilled covert operations expert Zora Bennett, who is tasked with leading a skilled team on a top-secret mission to obtain genetic material from the world's three largest dinosaurs. When Zora's mission intersects with a civilian family whose boat was overturned by marauding aquatic dinosaurs, they find themselves stranded on an island where they uncover a sinister, shocking discovery that has been hidden from the world for decades.
Mahershala Ali portrays Duncan Kincaid, Zora’s most trusted team leader; Emmy nominee and Olivier Award winner Jonathan Bailey (known for Wicked and Bridgerton) plays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Emmy nominee Rupert Friend (featured in Homeland and Obi-Wan Kenobi) takes on the role of Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo (seen in The Lincoln Lawyer and Murder on the Orient Express) plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked civilian family.
The cast is rounded out by Luna Blaise (Manifest), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty), and Audrina Miranda (Lopez vs. Lopez) as Reuben's family. Additionally, the film features Philippine Velge (Station Eleven), Bechir Sylvain (BMF), and Ed Skrein (Deadpool) as members of Zora and Krebs’ crews.

Last month, the writer of Jurassic World Rebirth confirmed that the film includes a sequence from the first Jurassic Park novel that was omitted from the 1993 movie. This sequence features Dr. Grant and two children (not present in the new film) attempting to navigate a lagoon in a rubber raft without disturbing a sleeping Tyrannosaurus rex. Their attempt fails, leading to a frantic paddle for survival, as reported by Vanity Fair.
