That Jurassic World Rebirth is the seventh film in a franchise started by Steven Spielberg should make at least one thing obvious. The film’s existence alone is a tribute to the iconic director. And while previous iterations have honored the filmmaker’s work in other ways, Rebirth takes things to a whole other level.

A Star Wars Story, and The Creator, director Gareth Edwards' latest is Jurassic World Rebirth - a standalone dinosaur adventure that aims to recapture the spirit of Steven Spielberg's 1993 classic.

A dream job for Edwards since he first started making his own movies, Jurassic World Rebirth afforded the director the rare opportunity to add his own vision to the franchise. When asked what scene ended up being his favorite, Edwards initially balked and said, "They’re all like children, and you're trying to love them equally.”
