Stomp. Stomp. Stomp. Hear that? That’s the sound of Jurassic World Rebirth approaching to take a bite out of summer blockbuster season – and while it’ll be the seventh film in the franchise that began so long ago with Jurassic Park, it has fresh toothy terrors to unleash. Because Rebirth – set in the wake of the Jurassic World trilogy, but with all-new characters and Gareth Edwards behind the camera – is delivering a selection of horrible hybrid experiments from InGen’s genetic meddling, including the gigantic bad Distortus Rex, and the winged Mutadons. You can glimpse both of them in the film’s latest trailer here:
10 years after the arrival of Jurassic World, it seems “bigger, scarier, more teeth” is still the mantra here – the Distortus seems like a real nasty piece of work, while those Mutadons are an intriguing hybrid of velociraptor and pterosaur. And, of course, there are all kinds of other classic dinos here too – from the Mosasaur, to the Quetzalcoatlus, to the legendary T-rex, the latter appearing in a sequence resurrected from Michael Crichton’s original novel. Hoping to avoid those snapping jaws (and beaks) are the likes of Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey, on a daring expedition to collect dino DNA from super-sized beasts.
This is a gigantic, bitey trailer – and we can’t wait to see what Edwards has cooked up (alongside returning screenwriter David Koepp, who penned Park and The Lost World). To keep you going in the meantime, the current issue of Empire has a major world-exclusive Jurassic World Rebirth cover feature – going on set to discover the inside secrets of the saga’s latest reinvention.
Get yours here now, and we’ll see you in the foyer for Rebirth when it hits UK cinemas on 2 July.
