Summary
Jurassic World Rebirthwill take a pivot as it reportedly returns to the franchise’s original tone. So, those who love the original movies are in for a treat because the production team is working on making it similar to Steven Spielberg’s works.
Spielberg directed the first twoJurassic Parkmovies –Jurassic Park(1993) andThe Lost World: Jurassic Park(1997). His works were considered a landmark in cinema history because they vividly captured the events from Michael Crichton’s 1990 novel with its groundbreaking visual effects.Jurassic Parkwas a massive hit, with critics praising it for using CGI and animatronics to bring the dinosaurs to life. They also loved the pacing and the performances from Sam Neill, Laura Dern andJeff Goldblum. Well, fans will surely take this as good news –Jurassic World Rebirthwill reportedly follow the same format.
TheJurassic World Rebirthwriter, David Koepp, got candid about what fans can expect from the upcoming sci-fi action adventure movie. According to Koepp, they are changing the “tone” of the upcoming film and leaning toward making it similar to Spielberg’s previous works. “I hope people like the movie because the series tended to change after three, and it felt like, okay, so let’s change our tone,” Koepp explained on The Discourse Podcast. “Steven [Spielberg] and I were interested in a tone that was maybe more akin to the very first movie. I saw it early on as a mission movie.”
TheJurassic World Rebirthhas encountered several hiccups during its development. David Leitch (director ofDeadpool, Atomic Blonde, Bullet Train, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, and Fall Guy) was initially set to helm the movie. However, he and Universal decided to part ways, leaving the project without a director. Early in 2024,Gareth Edwards, who directedRogue One: A Star Wars Story,was hired to sit on the director’s chair for the nextJurassic Worldmovie. Scarlett Johansson will leadJurassic World 4. TheBlack Widowstar was very impressed with Koepp’s script and praised the writer for the work he did. “The script is so incredible,” the Marvel star toldComicBookafter confirming her casting. “David Koepp wrote it. He returned after like 30 years to write the script. He’s so passionate about it, which is so awesome.”
PivotingJurassic World Rebirth’stone, similar to the firstJurassic Parkmovie, is like taking back the film to its roots and the title “Rebirth” makes sense. Pretty sure they will somewhat modernize their take and upgrade the elements from the original movie that draw the fans to the franchise. What’s important is to keep the suspense, wonder and ethical dilemmas highlighted in the first movie about genetic engineering.Jurassic World 4could deliver a thought-provoking and emotionally engaging story by bringing back onto the screen the thrill and horror of discovering something big that could either make or break the world. Also, by revisiting Jurassic Park’s basic principles, it’s easy to connect with the old audience who has been following the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World movies while introducing the new audience to the franchise’s core elements.
