Jurassic World Rebirth Writer Names 3 Rules New Sequel Will Abide By
Writer David Koepp has named three rules that the new movie will abide by.
Jurassic World Rebirth will be released in United States theaters in July 2025. Directed by Gareth Edwards, the film is the fourth installment in the Jurassic World franchise and the seventh installment overall in the Jurassic Park series.
Speaking with TheWrap, Koepp — who worked on the screenplays for 1993’s Jurassic Park and 1997’s The Lost World: Jurassic Park before tackling Jurassic World Rebirth — said that he wrote nine rules, or “commandments,” that the new film must abide by.
“Number one was – the events of the previous six movies cannot be denied or contradicted because I hate a retcon,” he said.
The second rule is that “all science must be real,” while the third one is “humor is oxygen.” The other six rules were not revealed given they delve into “spoiler-y territory.”
Koepp also said about Jurassic World Rebirth, “The idea of starting afresh. You don’t often get that chance where they give you very few guidelines, except there must be dinosaurs in it…Writing those first two movies were some of my favorite experiences in my career so far. The combination of grand adventure and real science is right up my alley. And it was fun to be able to decide on a new tone, because every three movies seems like a good time to change tone and characters in a franchise. It was great to be able to work solely with Steven and make up a story and think of all new characters and all in a different tone.”
Starring Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and more, Jurassic World Rebirth will hit theaters on July 2, 2025, from Universal Pictures.
