Scarlett Johansson leads action-packed ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ trailer with dinosaur-filled thrills

Universal has dropped the first trailer for 'Jurassic World Rebirth', and this time, Scarlett Johansson takes center stage as Zora Bennett, a covert operations expert with a crucial mission. 

Tasked with obtaining DNA from three colossal dinosaurs that could be key to a groundbreaking medical breakthrough, Zora faces unprecedented dangers. Her journey, shown in the trailer, promises intense action as she navigates a world overrun by terrifying, prehistoric creatures.

Directed by Gareth Edwards, the film introduces a darker, more thrilling tone, with Edwards emphasizing the importance of the characters' genuine fear of the dinosaurs. Johansson’s character, Zora, is not just surviving; she’s part of a larger scientific effort that could change the future of medicine. But, with dinosaurs on the loose, her mission becomes more than just about science—it’s about survival.

Zora is joined by Jonathan Bailey as Dr. Henry Loomis, a paleontologist whose expertise may prove vital—or he could become dino dinner. Mahershala Ali stars as Duncan Kincaid, the leader of the expedition, with Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and others rounding out the cast.

The trailer, teased earlier this week, shows Johansson and Bailey armed and braving the long grass, a setting that never bodes well for anyone in this franchise. With 'Jurassic World Rebirth', Scarlett Johansson leads the charge in a thrilling new chapter that hits theaters on July 2.
