Jurassic World Rebirth Is Going to Get Dangerous & Scary
“I’ve always said that visual effects are great, CGI is a great tool, but it makes you lazy because you know you can do anything,” Jurassic World Rebirth producer Frank Marshall told Vanity Fair, adding that to make the seventh film in the Jurassic Park / Jurassic World franchise relevant, “It’s got to be dangerous.”
“You’re in a new place, you don’t know what’s around the corner. You’ve got a different jungle, you’ve got more water, you’ve got higher cliffs,” Marshall continued. “There’s a little bit of everything that’s scary.”
The feature article reveals that the story of Jurassic World Rebirth will put Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey at the center of the story, playing a recovery team who is sent to a secret location from the franchise’s past: the first research lab where the prototype dinosaurs were first created. However, while the squad tries to secure a genetic prize that could benefit humanity, they find that those failed dino experiments didn’t quite abandon the abandoned facility or die off: they’re very much alive, thriving, and probably hungry for a good human snack.
“These are the dinosaurs that didn’t work. There’s some mutations in there,” Marshall revealed. “They’re all based on real dinosaur research, but they look a little different.”

“Jurassic Park is a horror film in the witness protection program,” Gareth Edwards added. “Most people don’t think of it like that. We all went to see it as kids. But I was scared shitless, to be honest, when I was at the cinema watching the T. rex attack. It’s one of the most well-directed scenes in cinema history, so the bar’s really high to come on board and try and do this.”
Jurassic World Rebirth has a theatrical release date of July 2nd.
