Jurassic World Rebirth: release date, cast, plot and everything we know about the dinosaur blockbuster (2025)

Jurassic Park is proving to be anything but extinct, as the dinosaur franchise that started all the way back in 1993 is getting a seventh entry: the 2025 new movie Jurassic World Rebirth.

Being touted as a "new era" by Universal Pictures, Jurassic World Rebirth is a bit of a reboot for the franchise following the Jurassic World trilogy that was led by Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, which concluded with Jurassic World Dominion in 2022. A time jump and a new set of characters leading the story will help mark this as the beginning of the new era of Jurassic Park.

Jurassic World Rebirth plot

Here is the synopsis for Jurassic World Rebirth, which was written by David Koepp, the screenwriter who wrote the original Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park: The Lost World:

"Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Those remaining exist in isolated equatorial environments with climates resembling the one in which they once thrived. The three most colossal creatures within that tropical biosphere hold the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind."
