Present day. 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 across land, sea and air within that tropical biosphere hold, in their DNA, the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind.
Skilled covert operations expert Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) is contracted to lead a skilled team on a top-secret mission to secure the genetic material. When Zora’s operation intersects with a civilian family whose boating expedition was capsized by marauding aquatic dinos, they all find themselves stranded on a forbidden island that had once housed an undisclosed research facility for Jurassic Park. There, in a terrain populated by dinosaurs of vastly different species, they come face-to-face with a sinister, shocking discovery that has been hidden from the world for decades.
Breaking out the Jurassic Park franchise from amber once more, director Gareth Edwards recaptures the magic, spectacle and sense of awe which made Steven Spielberg’s 1993 original revolutionary for blockbuster cinema.
With thrillingly staged setpieces – including a T-Rex river raft chase lifted straight out of Michael Crichton’s original novel – and a magnetic cast (including the unstoppable Scarlett Johannson and man-of-the-moment Jonathan Bailey in those glasses), Jurassic World Rebirth roars into the Tyneside this July.
