It's been a few weeks since they announced a new 'Jurassic World' movie but now they seem to have found a director (who must really want to make a hit after The Creator).

I actually like this choice, Edwards really knows how to deal with CG-heavy setpieces and how to present creatures with a proper sense of awe and scale, which are both important for a Jurassic flick. His Godzilla was in many ways a tribute to JP so it's a logical development for him to make one of these movies himself.

After a deal couldn’t be made for David Leitch to direct, Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment have moved fast as the studio is in final negotiations for Rogue One director Gareth Edwards to helm a new Jurassic World movie. The studio recently dated the pic to bow on July 2, 2025 and moved fast to find a director with Edwards spending all of last week meeting with execs. After impressing producers Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall, who helped launch the franchise in the 90s, an offer soon followed and pre-production is expected to ramp up once a deal is sealed.
The new movie will be a completely fresh take on a Jurassic era with Jurassic World castmembers Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard not expected to return, nor the original trilogy’s thespians Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern and Sam Neill. David Koepp penned the script.
