Universal Studios is in discussions with Jonathan Bailey, known for his role in the upcoming Wicked films, for a prominent part in the new Jurassic World installment. This information has been verified by The Hollywood Reporter. Scarlett Johansson is already confirmed for a role in the movie, which will be helmed by director Gareth Edwards and features a script penned by David Koepp, the writer behind Jurassic Park. The film is a collaboration between Universal and Amblin Entertainment, continuing the legacy of Michael Crichton's novel and Steven Spielberg's original Jurassic Park film in 1993.
Over the years, the Jurassic franchise has seen various directors take the helm, with Colin Trevorrow revitalizing it in 2015 with Jurassic World, starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. The latest installment, Dominion, set for release in 2022, will bring together stars from both the original Jurassic Park and Jurassic World series.
