There’s exciting news about the upcoming Jurassic World movie. Reports are buzzing that David Leitch, known for directing action-packed movies like Bullet Train and The Fall Guy, might take the helm for this new installment. While discussions are still in the early phase, Leitch’s involvement is highly anticipated, especially since he could be the most notable director for the series since Steven Spielberg started it all back in 1993.
Adding to the excitement, David Koepp, who penned the scripts for the original Jurassic Park and its sequel, The Lost World, is on board to write this new movie. With Koepp’s deep roots in the Jurassic saga and Leitch’s action movie prowess, the project is looking very promising. Spielberg is also supporting the movie through his company, Amblin Entertainment, along with Frank Marshall.
As of now, details about the movie’s story are under wraps, and no director has officially signed on. However, the screenplay is reportedly shaping up nicely, aiming for a release on July 2, 2025. This ambitious timeline highlights the extensive post-production required for such a large-scale movie, akin to the first three Jurassic World films. Notably, Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, along with other franchise veterans like Sam Neill, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum—who returned for Jurassic World Dominion—are not expected to be part of this new chapter.
This upcoming film will be the seventh in the Jurassic Park series, excluding the Netflix animated series Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous. The previous movie, Jurassic World Dominion, released in 2022, was a box office hit, grossing over $1 billion globally.
