The SurpassingJurassic World franchise will continue next summer with the release of "Jurassic World Rebirth," and Universal Pictures gave fans a first look at the film's new logo and cast.
The movie, which is scheduled to hit theaters in July 2025, will have different actors leading the franchise. Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey will star in the new film, while actors Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard starred in the previous three Jurassic World entries.
"This action-packed new chapter sees an intrepid team racing to secure DNA samples from the three most colossal creatures across land, sea and air," according to the movie's official summary.
"Jurassic World Rebirth" is directed by Gareth Edwards, who previously directed "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story," and takes place five years after the events of "Jurassic World Dominion."
"The planet’s ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs," the movie's summary says. "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."

Who are the new 'Jurassic World Rebirth' characters?
Johansson will play a skilled covert operations expert named Zora Bennett, according to the studio. She will be hired in the film to lead the team extracting DNA from the "three most gargantuan dinosaur species left alive."
Ali plays Zora’s partner, Duncan Kincaid, while Bailey plays a paleontologist named Dr. Henry Loomis, Universal Pictures said.
In the first official photos from the film, Johansson's and Bailey's characters watch something through tall grass, while Ali's character holds a flare and appears to be screaming.
