Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)
I’m Not Buying Jurassic World 4’s Most Exciting Promise
Jurassic World 4 will not deliver on its most exciting promise unless it completely reinvents the franchise after the previous trilogy.
Jurassic World Rebirth Is About The DNA Story
It Builds On The Previous Movies
The biggest reveal from theJurassic World Rebirthtitle is how it connects to the franchise’s DNA storylines. The officialJurassic World Rebirthsynopsisstates that three dinosaurs"hold the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to human kind.“The title connects to this idea bysuggesting that dinosaur DNA will be used to create advancements for humanitythat could give the entire species a rebirth after spending the last five years afterJurassic World Dominion’s endingtrying to coexist with the dinosaurs in a world they now share.
DNA has always played a pivotal role in theJurassicmovies, with Hammond’s research always attempting to recreate life or create something entirely new. This is what led to the human cloning subplot of theJurassic Worldtrilogy and the overall focus on humanity’s evolution through dinosaur DNA. AlthoughJurassic World Rebirthis a mostly unconnected follow-upfeaturing a new cast of characters, it still is building on what was established previously. Using dinosaur DNA as the new key to a drug that could save human lives and more.
Jurassic World Rebirth Suggests More Dinosaurs Will Be Created
Dinosaurs Are Struggling To Survive
The entire basis of theJurassicfranchise is built around humanity’s desire to create more dinosaurs, whether that was Hammond’s research in the original or the work that InGen did in theJurassic Worldmovies. And with a title likeJurassic World Rebirth, there is reason to believe that even more dinosaurs will be created. However, the reason for it could be wildly different from before. According to the official synopsis,“the planet’s ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs.“The implication thatdinosaurs cannot live in the current environments on Earthrisks them becoming extinct again.
That could be part of the meaning behindJurassic World Rebirth’s title then. The movie could be aboutthe rebirth of the dinosaur cloning experimentsthat allows for more dinosaurs to be created. It would not be aJurassic Worldmovie without the emergence of new dinosaurs. Perhaps that is even why the synopsis teases"a sinister, shocking discovery that’s been hidden from the world for decades.“It would not be terribly surprising if that discovery is a new species of dinosaurs or a completely different research facility that has been working to help dinosaurs be reborn once again.

With Jurassic World 4 approaching, it’s time to consider which dinosaurs from the franchise’s previous four movies deserve more screen time.
Jurassic World Rebirth Is About A New Era For The Franchise
The Movies Are Being Reborn Too
TheJurassic World Rebirthtitle has an additional meaning when its place in the franchise is taken into consideration. The movie might be building on ideas from the previous six movies, but this is a completely different story with no returning characters or known major connections to previous installments. This is whyJurassic World 4was viewed as the start of a new era for the franchiseeven before the title was known. Calling the movieJurassic World Rebirthis just further confirmation on this idea.
The selected subtitle should help audiences realize that whileJurassic World Rebirthis still very much a part of the main franchise, it is also a fresh start in a sense. The originalJurassic Worldessentially tried to redo Steven Spielberg’s original movie by updating and expanding it for current blockbuster expectations. It still relied heavily on what came before instead of attempting to chart a new course.Jurassic World Rebirthseems to be attempting to do just that andusher in a new era for the franchise, even if it is similar to past movies.
It’s another sign of Universal’s unwillingness to let the franchise die or even take a break for that long
The meta meaning ofJurassic World Rebirth’s title is silly on some levels, as it’s another sign of Universal’s unwillingness to let the franchise die or even take a break for that long. But in terms of titles that both work as a follow-up toDominion, tease story details, and suggest the fresh direction of the franchise, it is probably the best option. The full meaning ofJurassic World Rebirth’s title could only grow as more information on the movie becomes available.
