Universal Pictures has unveiled the debut trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, offering a thrilling glimpse into the highly anticipated action film slated for a July release.

The trailer introduces Scarlett Johansson's team, embarking on a perilous mission to a remote island. This island, revealed to be the original Jurassic Park research facility, houses dinosaurs deemed too dangerous for the original park. Their mission: to acquire DNA from the three largest dinosaurs on Earth, vital for creating a life-saving drug. Naturally, things don't go as planned.

Here's the official synopsis:

Led by action icon Scarlett Johansson, alongside Jonathan Bailey and two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, this action-packed adventure follows a daring team racing against time to secure DNA samples from the three most colossal dinosaurs across land, sea, and air. Also starring Rupert Friend and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film is directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and scripted by original Jurassic Park screenwriter David Koepp.

Five years after Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecosystem struggles to support dinosaurs. The remaining dinosaurs reside in isolated equatorial regions with climates mirroring their prehistoric habitats. These three colossal creatures hold the key to a revolutionary life-saving drug.

Academy Award nominee Johansson portrays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative leading a top-secret mission. When Zora's operation intersects with a civilian family whose boat is capsized by aquatic dinosaurs, they become stranded on the island, uncovering a decades-old, shocking secret.

Ali plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora's trusted team leader; Emmy nominee and Olivier Award winner Jonathan Bailey portrays paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis; Emmy nominee Rupert Friend appears as Big Pharma representative Martin Krebs; and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo plays Reuben Delgado, the father of the shipwrecked family.

The cast also includes Luna Blaise, David Iacono, and Audrina Miranda as Reuben's family, alongside Philippine Velge, Bechir Sylvain, and Ed Skrein.

Last month, Jurassic World: Rebirth's writer confirmed the inclusion of a sequence from the original Jurassic Park novel, omitted from the 1993 film. This sequence, confirmed by Vanity Fair, depicts Dr. Grant and two children (not featured in this film) attempting a perilous raft journey through a lagoon, narrowly avoiding a slumbering Tyrannosaurus rex.
