When will Jurassic World 4 be released?

Jurassic World may have been originally imagined as a trilogy but the franchise isn't extinct yet as a new film in the series is going into the works.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, a fourth film in the sequel series to Jurassic Park has been greenlit and the publication has revealed some information about what is to come.

Here is everything we know so far about Jurassic World 4.

When will Jurassic World 4 be released?

The next Jurassic World movie will be released in cinemas on 2 July, 2025. The film is being fast-tracked into production by Universal Studios and will go in front of cameras soon.

Who will star in the next Jurassic World movie?

Scarlett Johansson is said to be in talks to lead the next Jurassic Park movie alongside Wicked star Jonathan Bailey – although neither are officially confirmed just yet.

It has been reported that Jurassic World 4 won't see sequel trilogy cast members Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard returning, nor will it see fan favourites Sam Neill, Jeff Goldblum and Laura Dern reprise their roles from the Jurassic Park franchise.

What is the plot of Jurassic World 4?

The Hollywood Reporter announced that the fourth Jurassic World movie will be written by David Koepp, who previously worked on the script for Steven Spielberg's original 1993 classic as well as its 1997 sequel The Lost World: Jurassic Park.

The sequel will be helmed by Gareth Edwards, the same filmmaker behind 2023's visual epic The Creator and Star Wars spin-off Rogue One. Edwards' involvement was unveiled in February 2024, a short time after it was announced that the original director who was set to helm the film — Bullet Train filmmaker David Leitch — had dropped out.

The Hollywood Reporter also revealed that the new film will be executive produced by Spielberg, and produced by Frank Marshall and Patrick Crowley whose ties to the franchise go back a long way.

The movie is expected to launch a new era of the franchise, with reports suggesting that it will focus on a whole new story that will reignite the film series and take it in a new direction.

There are unconfirmed rumours that the film will be called 'Jurassic City', suggesting an urban setting for the dino-movie.
