Note: there are minor spoilers for “Jurassic World Rebirth” in the article below
Welcome to Jurassic Park.
Well, not really. “Jurassic World Rebirth” does not bring his characters back to any of the park’s sites. Instead, the film – which is now in theaters, directed by Gareth Edwards – brings its last crew on an island near the equator, the only place where the remaining dinosaurs in the world can survive.
Of course, these dinosaurs only exist because of the previous films of the “Jurassic World”, you may wonder if you should see these films before heading to “La Renaissance”.
Well, the short answer is no, not technically. But let’s go.
Do I have to watch the other “Jurassic World” movies to understand this one?
The events of “Rebirth” take place after “Jurassic World Dominion”, but thanks to a few title cards at the start of “Rebirth”, followed almost immediately by a dialogue that sums up the same information, you are quite well caught at the start of this film.
There are no flashbacks or heavy references to the old films of “Jurassic World”. Everything you need Knowing is that the dinosaurs were brought back to the modern world in this trilogy and left the ground quite freely.
Do I have to watch the original films of “Jurassic Park”?
Likewise, the original trilogy is not an essential visualization to understand “Renaissance” at a basic level. That said, there are Easter eggs that refer to these films and a pure and simple drop of Alan Grant. For those who are not familiar, it was played by Sam Neill in the original films and returned to “Dominion”. But the reference is ephemeral and has no impact on history far beyond the formation of light connective tissue.
Does an old character make a cameo?
No! You don’t have to worry about an actor who presents himself in a clearly significant way, but not to know who they are. No actor in “Jurassic World” films or “Jurassic Park” films intervenes.
“Jurassic World Rebirth” is now in theaters around the world.
