Jurassic World Rebirth is a 2025 American science fiction action film directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp. The sequel to Jurassic World Dominion (2022), it is the fourth installment in the Jurassic World film series, as well as the seventh installment overall in the Jurassic Park franchise. The film features Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Ed Skrein. In Jurassic World Rebirth, the world's de-extinct dinosaurs live around the equator, which provides the last viable climate for them to survive. A team travels to a former island research facility where three specific gigantic species of dinosaurs reside, with the goal of extracting samples that are vital for a heart disease treatment. The team also rescues a shipwrecked family, and both groups struggle to survive after becoming stranded on the island. Work on the film began shortly after the release of Jurassic World Dominion (2022), when executive producer Steven Spielberg recruited Koepp to help him develop a new installment in the series. Koepp previously co-wrote the original Jurassic Park film (1993) and wrote its sequel, The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997). Development of Rebirth was first reported in January 2024. Edwards was hired as director a month later, and casting commenced shortly thereafter. Principal photography took place in Thailand, Malta, and the United Kingdom from June to September 2024, with a budget of $180–254 million. Jurassic World Rebirth premiered on June 17, 2025, at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in London, and was released in the United States and Canada by Universal Pictures on July 2. The film received mixed reviews from critics, though some deemed it an improvement over previous entries. It became the sixth-highest-grossing film of 2025, grossing over $872 million worldwide – the first feature in the franchise since Jurassic Park III to not reach $1 billion. At the 98th Academy Awards, it was nominated for Best Visual Effects, making it the first film in the Jurassic Park franchise since The Lost World to receive an Oscar nomination in any category. A sequel is in development.
