Jurassic World: Rebirth' brings back dinosaurs
Scarlett Johansson's role in Jurassic World: Rebirth made her recall her earliest memories of the dinosaur film franchise. The Black Widow actor recalled seeing the first Jurassic Park film at the cinema when she was 10 years old. "It imprinted on me very deeply," she told Reuters at the London premiere at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square. "For the next three decades, I was like, I would have done anything to be in a Jurassic movie in any capacity," she added. The franchise, created by Michael Crichton, has spawned several films, merchandising deals and video games. The seventh instalment in the franchise, Jurassic World: Rebirth, directed by Gareth Edwards, follows a team of specialists that embarks on an expedition to a forbidden island, home to a research facility for the original Jurassic Park. The specialists, played by Johansson and Bridgerton actor Jonathan Bailey, must obtain DNA samples from three dinosaurs to achieve a life-saving medical breakthrough. The Universal Pictures film arrives in theatres on July 2. For Rupert Friend, this instalment in the franchise is exhilarating. "I love adventure. I love being taken on a ride where you don't know what's going to happen. I love the unknown. I love risk," he said. For well-known science fiction director, Edwards, the pressure for the film to succeed did not hit until he arrived at the premiere. "It's all front and centre here. It feels a bit weird to be honest. I can't quite get my head around it," the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story director added. However, as per IMDb, tracking figures for the dinosaur film suggests one of the lowest opening weekends in the franchise's history. Even accounting for the additional two days in the July Fourth long weekend in the United States, superhero films Superman and The Fantastic Four: First Steps are both expected to outperform Jurassic World: Rebirth.
