How Gareth Edwards Made ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ His Ultimate Spielberg Love letter

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. “In reading the script, there are scenes [and] descriptions where they’re in a boat chasing a giant creature through the water. They’re leaning forward at the front with a rifle. T

‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Didn’t Always End That Way

Jurassic World Rebirth is now in theaters, and if you’ve seen it, you probably felt a little manipulated by the end. Not in a bad way necessarily, but in a way that felt somehow satisfying and also disappointing. You guessed what was going to happen but also kind of hoped it didn’t. Well, it turns out there’s a very, very good reason and story behind that. So, we asked the film’s director, Gareth Edwards, about it. Major spoilers below In Jurassic World Rebirth, as the group is getting ready to

How the Quick Turnaround of ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Became a Good Thing

Writing, development, pre-production, casting, filming, editing, visual effects, scoring, sound, and more. The process of making a movie, especially a big, expensive movie, is a long one. According to director Gareth Edwards, who has made his share of big movies like Rogue One and Godzilla, normally it would take two and a half years from when he, the director, would be hired until the film is released in theaters. But, when it comes to Jurassic World Rebirth, the process was anything but normal

Universal Asked That Scenes Be Added Back Into ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’

There’s a reason why the biggest, most famous filmmakers in the world all want “final cut” of their movies. It’s because they don’t want anyone, least of all a studio executive, to have an impact on their vision. More often than not, when studios meddle in editing, it’s to make films shorter. However, the exact opposite happened on the new Jurassic film, Jurassic World Rebirth. Rebirth started shooting in June 2024, finished in October 2024 and, right after Christmas, director Gareth Edwards wa

Gareth Edwards Is Glad You Liked ‘Rogue One,’ Just Don’t Ask Him to Make Another ‘Star Wars’

Gareth Edwards, who directed Godzilla (2014), The Creator, and the brand-new Jurassic World Rebirth, is always going to be asked about his time in the galaxy far, far away. That’s just the nature of Star Wars and, more specifically, Star Wars fans, most of whom look very fondly upon 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story—especially in the wake of Andor‘s two-season run on Disney+. Edwards is thrilled for all the goodwill, but that doesn’t mean he’s hoping for a return to that world. “I’m very happ

Gareth Edwards Sees ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ as a Metaphor for the Film Industry

Gareth Edwards knows a thing or two about sci-fi films. And whether he’s creating his own unique worlds, like Monsters or The Creator, or working in someone else’s, like Godzilla or Rogue One, the director thinks one thing links the entire genre together. “[Sci-fi] films are never really about spaceships, robots or dinosaurs,” he told io9. “They feel pointless if they are. They [only] have meaning when the whole thing is kind of an analogy for something else.” So, what is Edwards’ latest film,

Gareth Edwards Toiled Over Using John Williams’ Music in ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’

One of the weirdest choices made in the previous three Jurassic World films was not to lean on John Williams’ iconic score from the original Jurassic Park. On the one hand, you understand the score elicits emotions very specific to that one movie and won’t always necessarily line up with the story being told. But, on the other hand, it’s a Jurassic Park movie; hit us with that John Williams goodness. Jurassic World Rebirth, which opens in theaters July 2, makes use of Williams’ themes at severa
