Will The Jurassic Park Franchise Ever End? Jurassic World Rebirth Director Reveals

Jurassic World Rebirth is set for release on July 2.
Colin Trevorrow is 'very proud" of what he has achieved with the Jurassic World franchise. The 48-year-old director was at the helm of the 2015 film Jurassic World – which served as the fourth installment overall in the Jurassic Park film series – and after making Jurassic World Dominion seven years later, he has insisted that it is unlikely that 'interest will ever really run out" because of the global fascination with dinosaurs.
He told The Hollywood Reporter: 'I was so deeply entrenched in what we were building over all of that time. It wasn't just the films and the two animated series on Netflix; we have the toys and the theme parks, and everything else that we did. So we built something that's strong enough to move forward, and I'm very proud of that. I also know that pretty much every time a child is born, a new dinosaur fan is born. So I don't think the interest in seeing dinosaurs is ever really going to run out."
As Trevorrow prepares for the release of Jurassic World Rebirth, he admitted that even though his idea of the franchise takes a 'step away" from the initial concept somewhat, he has still been able to find a way to keep the idea coming back to the screen in a 'comprehensive" way.
He said: 'I always applied the same rules to dinosaurs as I would to real animals. When a tiger is set loose in a city, they capture it pretty fast. So the idea that these wild creatures would even want to come close to a city was a question I would always ask, and we managed to find ways to make it make sense. I think dinosaurs running wild in the streets of a city does take a bit of a step away from what Michael Crichton created, and that was always my feeling."
He added: But we did find ways for them to interact with our world as comprehensively as possible. And when I say that, it's not just the films; it's our animated shows as well. They did a lot of that, especially the new one [Jurassic World: Chaos Theory]." Jurassic World Rebirth is set for release on July 2.

Aditi Rao Hydari Says She's Still ‘Waiting' For Work After Heeramandi Success

Last Updated: Aditi Rao Hydari said that she received immense love and appreciation for her role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Heeramandi, but that hasn't translated into new opportunities. Bollywood actress Aditi Rao Hydari was widely praised for her performance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period drama series Heeramandi, which also starred Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha and others. Despite the success of the show, Aditi revealed that she is still waiting to sign a new film or show. In a recent chat with Lilly Singh, she highlighted the persistent challenges women face in the entertainment industry. She said that while she received immense love and appreciation for her role, the acclaim has not translated into new work opportunities. Aditi Rao Hydari talked about Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Heeramandi and its success, in a chat with Lilly Singh. Lilly shared her observation that when stories centred on women succeed, they are often treated as exceptions rather than the norm. Aditi completely agreed with that, and said, 'It is, yes. You are absolutely correct." She further went on to point out that despite the show's success, she is yet to sign a new film or project. 'For example, after Heeramandi, it was wonderful. I got so much love, so much appreciation. So much everything. Have I signed my next show/film? No. I haven't. I'm still waiting." She added, 'I got a lot from it. But yeah, I am still waiting." When Lilly asked Aditi if she believes it will be easier to create shows like Heeramandi again with that kind of budget, now that it's a success, Aditi replied honestly: 'No, I don't think so. I hope so. I hope there will be a change." She said that she hopes the power of storytelling takes center stage, regardless of the gender focus. She said that women are equal participants in life, and thus deserve equal space in stories and on screen. 'Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar', created and directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, features an ensemble cast including Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Sheikh, Sharmin Segal, and Taha Shah Badussha. It premiered on Netflix on 1st May, 2024. Meanwhile, Aditi Rao Hydari will next be seen in Imtiaz Ali's series 'O Saathi Re' alongside Avinash Tiwary. She also has 'Parivarik ManuRanjan', a family entertainer, in the pipeline. The film also stars Pankaj Tripathi. First Published: June 17, 2025, 09:50 IST
