Jurassic World Rebirth, the seventh theatrical chapter in the Jurassic franchise and a standalone sequel to Jurassic World Dominion, was released in the United States and Canada on July 2, 2025, following its world premiere in London on June 17[2]. Directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp, the film stars Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Ed Skrein[2][5].

The plot centers on covert operations expert Zora Bennett (Johansson), who leads a skilled team on a high-risk mission to a forbidden island. Their goal: secure genetic material from three of the most massive dinosaurs left on Earth, whose DNA could yield breakthrough medical benefits for humanity[3][4][5][6]. The team’s mission intersects with a civilian family shipwrecked off the equator, and both groups must survive as they uncover a shocking secret hidden since the original Jurassic Park facility’s heyday[4][5]. The film explores a world where dinosaurs, now confined to isolated equatorial environments, face extinction and human exploitation[6].

Filming took place across Thailand, Malta, and the UK during the summer of 2024[2]. The movie received mixed reviews, with critics generally praising its action set-pieces and dinosaur effects while criticizing its screenplay and character development[2][7]. Box office numbers show a worldwide gross of $30.5 million against a reported production budget of $180 million as of early July 2025[2].

Director Gareth Edwards, who joined the project in early 2024, revealed he currently has no plans to return for a sequel, wishing instead to focus on original projects. However, he left the door open for future installments, citing the enduring appeal of the franchise and its dinosaur-obsessed cast[1].
