Thanks to the multiple A-list actors and the legendary lines, Jurassic Park quickly became a worldwide hit. Following on from the original movie’s success, two more Jurassic Park films were made, as well as three Jurassic World flicks.

Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern, Sam Neill, Chris Pratt, and Bryce Dallas Howard are just a few of the names who have appeared in the franchise – so far.

Now, the story is being continued with another star-studded cast set to hit our screens in July 2025 in Jurassic World 4.

Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali have all been confirmed to be joining the latest instalment in the beloved franchise. 

Original cast-member Jeff Goldblum – aka Dr. Ian Malcolm – officially welcomed Scarlett Johansson, 39, to the Jurassic Park family in a touching message in July.

“Dr Johansson, this is Jeff Goldblum,” he began in a video message shown to Johansson during her interview on Today.

“Here’s what I want to say to you. This I know: Scarlett will find a way,” he said, in reference to one of Jurassic Park’s most iconic lines.

“Don’t get eaten, unless you want to. I love you.”

Johansson, who’ll be portraying the lead character in the currently untitled fourth Jurassic World film, was beyond excited after watching the video message.

“Oh my God, I can t believe Jeff said that to me. I think my life is complete now. I can retire,” she said.

The 39-year-old also described the script for the upcoming movie as “so incredible”.

“I am an enormous Jurassic Park fan. It is one of the first movies I remember seeing in theatres,” she told ComicBook.com.

“I remember it so vividly. It was life-changing and mind blowing. I cannot express how excited I am.”
