Jurassic World Rebirthis one of the most exciting movies coming out this summer. Additionally, it’s the most excited I’ve been about a movie in the franchise since 2015’sJurassic World. Just likeJurassic World,Rebirthwill start a new era for the franchise. While the 2015 film received mostly positive reviews from audiences and critics, its follow-up movies,Jurassic World: Fallen KingdomandJurassic World Dominion, were very underwhelming. In fact, neitherFallen KingdomnorDominionfelt like the originalJurassic Parkmovie at all.
Therefore, I’m glad that doesn’t seem to be the case with theupcomingJurassic World Rebirth. If it is a success, then we may get many moreJurassic Worldmoviesin the coming years with a renewed vision. Based on thetrailers forJurassic World Rebirth, it does seem like the film will be a hit with both critics and audiences. In classicJurassic Parkfashion, it seems likeRebirthwill include a lot of terrifying dinosaurs and thrilling action sequences. Therefore,here are the eight main reasons I’m excited forJurassic World Rebirth:
8Jurassic World Rebirth’s Director Has Made Several Amazing Blockbusters
Gareth Edwards Has Made Monster Movies Before
Jurassic World Rebirthwill be directed by Gareth Edwards, who has helmed previous blockbusters likeGodzilla,Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, andThe Creator. All three of these movies prove that Edwards is a talented director.Rogue OneandGodzilla, in particular, showcase thatEdwards is capable of working within an existing franchise. To this day, some fans still argue thatRogue Oneis the bestStar Warsmovie. AStar Warsinfluence will definitely be felt inJurassic World Rebirth, as the new hybrid dinosaur resembles a Rancor from the galaxy far, far away.
Moreso thanRogue One,Godzillaproves that Edwards was a great pick to directJurassic World Rebirth. In the 2014 film, Edwards brought monsters like Godzilla and MUTO to life. All the monsters in the movie which kickstarted the Monsterverse were terrifying, which proves that thedinosaurs inJurassic World Rebirthwill also be very scary. Many dinosaurs in theJurassic Parkfranchise should be treated as monsters to evoke the horror that was present in the original movie. Therefore,it’s great that Edwards has experience making monster movies.
7The Writer Of The Original Jurassic Park Wrote Rebirth
David Koepp Will Ensure Rebirth Evokes The First Jurassic Park Movie
Over three decades after working with Steven Spielberg on the originalJurassic Parkmovie, screenwriter David Koepp was brought back to penRebirth.Koepp wrote the screenplays forJurassic Parkand its sequel,The Lost World: Jurassic Park, but then left the franchise. SinceFallen KingdomandDominiondisappointed both audiences and critics, it was a smart decision to bring Koepp back into the mix to writeJurassic World Rebirth, which will hopefully be one of the best movies in the long-running franchise.
The T-rex river chase sequence inJurassic World Rebirthis a scene that was cut from the originalJurassic Parkmovie.
Since Koepp returned to the franchise after so many years,he was able to include scenes inJurassic World Rebirththat never made it into the series' first two movies. For example,the T-rex river chase sequence inJurassic World Rebirthis a scene that was cut from the originalJurassic Parkmovie. Based on the trailer forRebirth, it seems like this scene will be terrifying, and help the new film match the tone ofJurassic Park, which is widely regarded as one of the best blockbusters of all time.
6The Cast Of Jurassic World Rebirth Is Great
Scarlett Johansson Leads The Star-Studded Cast Of Jurassic World Rebirth
Obviously, the main appeal of theJurassic Parkmovies is the many dinosaurs. However,no movie in the franchise would work without human characters. Thankfully, thecast ofJurassic World Rebirthis incredible. The upcoming movie will feature Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, Mahershala Ali, and Rupert Friend in starring roles. While there are several other talented actors included in the cast, these are the most notable names. Johansson, in particular, is arguably the most popular actress in the world, and will bring a lot of star power toJurassic World Rebirth.
In addition to Johansson, the three aforementioned actors are also amazing. Bailey has also appeared inBridgertonand is now on the rise as a leading man in Hollywood thanks to his role inWickedand the upcomingWicked: For Good. Meanwhile,Ali is a two-time Oscar winner who hasn’t appeared in that many movies in recent years, possibly because his upcoming MCU movie,Blade, keeps experiencing delays. Therefore, it will be great to see him in a major blockbuster likeJurassic World Rebirth, as well. Overall, the entire cast ofRebirthis exceptional.
5Jurassic World Rebirth’s Setting Will Recapture The Magic Of The Original Movie
Jurassic World Rebirth Will Mostly Be Set On An Island
While the first threeJurassic Parkmovies were all primarily set on remote islands, theJurassic Worldfilms changed things up. The 2015 film is also set on an island, but its two sequels feature dinosaurs in different settings. While dinosaurs escaping their captivity on islands and making their way towards more densely populated areas seemed like a great idea, neitherFallen KingdomnorDominionexecuted it well. In fact, specificallyinDominion, it was very underwhelming to see dinosaurs roaming around major cities.
Therefore, I’m glad thatJurassic World Rebirthwill once again primarily be set on an island. The upcoming film will be set on the island that served as the research facility for the original Jurassic Park. As is stated in the trailers for the film, the dinosaurs on this island were deemed too dangerous for the original park. This means thatthe characters inJurassic World Rebirthwill encounter a lot of danger while on their mission to retrieve the DNA of several different dinosaur species.
4Jurassic World Rebirth’s Hybrid Dinosaur Looks Terrifying
Jurassic World Rebirth Will Introduce The D-Rex
InJurassic World Rebirth, Johansson’s Zora Bennett will lead a team to retrieve the DNA of the biggest dinosaurs of the land, air, and sea. However, they will likely not expect to encounter the new hybrid dinosaur which is teased in the trailers.Jurassic World Rebirth’shybrid dinosaur is known as the Distortus Rex, and was designed to resemble a Rancor fromStar Warsand Xenomorph from theAlienfranchise.
Hybrid dinosaurs are a unique concept that still have a lot of potential, so I can’t wait to see what role the D-rex plays inJurassic World Rebirth.
The trailers forJurassic World Rebirthsuggest thatthe D-rex could be the scariest dinosaur in the entire franchise. Since the previoushybrid dinosaurs inJurassic Worldmovieshave been pretty forgettable, I’m glad that the D-rex has a unique design and a terrifying presence inRebirth. Hybrid dinosaurs are a unique concept that still have a lot of potential, so I can’t wait to see what role the D-rex plays inJurassic World Rebirth.
3The Most Iconic Dinosaurs From The Franchise Will Appear In Jurassic World Rebirth
The Dinosaurs In Jurassic World Rebirth Will Be Dangerous
In addition to the newly introduced D-rex,several of the most iconic dinosaurs from the franchise will make appearances inJurassic World Rebirth. Just to name a few, a T-rex, spinosaurus', and raptors will all appear in the franchise’s newest movie. These are obviously all welcome inclusions inJurassic World Rebirth, since they are arguably the most memorable dinosaurs in the entire series. A spinosaurus, in particular, hasn’t been seen sinceJurassic Park III, so it will be amazing to see not just one, but multiple, inRebirth.
I’m also so glad that T-rex’s and raptors will once again be scary inJurassic World Rebirth. The movie’s aforementioned river chase scene proves that the T-rex will once again be portrayed as one of the most dangerous dinosaurs in the franchise. Additionally, after being portrayed as allies to characters like Owen Grady in the previousJurassic Worldmovies, raptors will also be portrayed as deadly, terrifying creatures inRebirth. By including all these species,it is clear thatJurassic WorldRebirth wants to honor the most notable dinosaurs from the franchise’s past.
2Jurassic World Rebirth Will Feature Multiple Amazing Action Set Pieces
The Action In Jurassic World Rebirth Looks Incredible
Jurassic Parkis a franchise that has always blended both horror and action. Therefore, in addition to including many scary dinosaurs to amp up the movie’s horror,Jurassic World Rebirthalso needs a lot of action set pieces. Thankfully, the trailers for the film showcase many intense set pieces. Since it is inspired by a scene that was cut in the originalJurassic Park, the T-rex river chase sequence has obviously been getting a lot of attention. However,the trailers forJurassic World Rebirthalso include a lot of other unique and thrilling set pieces.
For example, while trying to obtain DNA from a quetzalcoatlus nest, the characters will have an intense encounter with the flying creature which will result in some of them hanging from a rope off a steep cliff. Additionally,the characters inJurassic World Rebirthwill be attacked by a mosasaurus and several spinosaurus' while on a boat, which will be a very dangerous and potentially deadly showdown. These are just a few of the set pieces teased forJurassic World Rebirth, which will likely include many amazing action sequences.
1Jurassic World Rebirth Will Start A New Era For The Franchise
Will Jurassic World Rebirth Set Up Future Movies?
Finally,I’m very excited forJurassic World Rebirthsince it will start a new era for the franchise. After two underwhelmingJurassic Worldmovies, the franchise needs a huge win if it wants to continue. Based on the box office earnings of the last few films, it is clear that people still want newJurassic Worldmovies. However, the story of the last few films left a lot to be desired. Therefore, ifJurassic World Rebirth’sstory is a lot more interesting and reviews for the film are good, then the future of the series will look very bright.
Based on the trailers for the movie,I am confident thatJurassic World Rebirthwill be a hit with both audiences and critics.Rebirthdefinitely looks a lot better than the last few movies in the franchise, which means that it truly can be the start of a new era.
