Just when it seemed like the Jurassic Park franchise might’ve wrapped up after the events of Jurassic World: Dominion, Universal Pictures has decided to revisit the world in which dinosaurs exist in modern times with a sequel to the Jurassic Park series but prequel to the Jurassic World trilogy. Yeah, exactly.

According to Variety, Jurassic World: Rebirth is set to stomp into theaters this coming July and will be taking place five years before the events of 2015’s Jurassic World, which starred Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. Universal Pictures released the trailer to the Gareth Edwards feature earlier today (Feb. 5) and from the looks of it, it’s going to be one prehistoric ride in modern times.
Starring Scarlett Johanson as covert ops specialist Zora Bennett, the film centers around a team’s mission to secure genetic material from three of the biggest dinosaurs roaming what was once known as Jurassic Park. With hopes of cracking a medical breakthrough to save millions of lives, Bennett leads a team of scientists and others to the abandoned island only to learn that dinosaurs aren’t exactly domesticated and rather, well, territorial.
Needless to say, things go left almost immediately as there’s no actual playbook on how to deal with deadly and carnivorous prehistoric beasts.
Per Variety:
The cast also includes Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Ed Skrein, Mahershala Ali, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Luna Blaise, Philippine Velge, David Iacono, Audrina Miranda and Bechir Sylvain.
Bailey plays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Ali plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora’s partner; and Friend plays Martin Krebs, a representative for the drug corporation financing the mission. Velge, Sylvain and Skrein are said to play team members reporting to Zora.
We got Blade linking up with Black Widow in the Jurassic Park franchise before we got to see him in a Marvel cinematic movie. What the hell, man?!
