Jurassic World Rebirth has been dubbed a “standalone sequel” to the long-running franchise, which originated in 1993 with Jurassic Park, and Scarlett Johansson thinks it’s a fresh start for the series in more than just name.
“This film, to me, really felt like it’s singular.

The seventh movie in the series is set five years after 2022’s Jurassic World Dominion and wipes the slate clean with a whole new cast of characters – and a new crop of jurassic beasts.
