Final ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Trailer Pits Scarlett Johansson Against Distortus Rex & Winged Mutadons

The latest Jurassic World: Rebirth trailer delivers a grounded, suspenseful vibe as Scarlett Johansson’s Zora Bennett heads a covert mission to extract dinosaur DNA from a remote island sanctuary. While the film promises intense action and new prehistoric threats, the standout moment is a pulse-pounding river chase sequence — a direct homage to a scene Michael Crichton wrote for the original novel but never saw on screen until now.

Director Gareth Edwards leans into practical effects and a more naturalistic tone, aiming to recapture the awe and tension that made the franchise legendary. With a cast including Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey, Rebirth looks set to balance thrilling dino encounters with a gripping survival story.

What’s especially exciting for long-time fans is the film’s return to practical creature effects and on-location shoots, a conscious move away from the heavy CGI of recent instalments. The trailer hints at a more tactile, suspense-driven experience that echoes the original Jurassic Park — right down to the ominous jungle vistas and the bone-rattling sound design.

With the promise of new dinosaur species, a fresh survival mystery, and a cast ready to face extinction-level odds, Jurassic World: Rebirth is shaping up to be more than just another sequel. It’s a bold attempt to evolve the franchise while paying tribute to its roots—both on screen and on the page.

Jurassic World: Rebirth stomps into theatres on 2 July 2025.
