Get Ready For A Lot More Jurassic World Movies If Scarlett Johansson’s Rebirth Film Continues This Impressive Franchise Trend

If Jurassic World Rebirth is as successful as the previous Jurassic World movies, it’s a safe bet that at least a couple more films will follow it up. The original Jurassic Park trilogy has since morphed into the Jurassic World franchise. The first Jurassic Park movie was released in 1993 and received immense acclaim. The success of the first film led to two sequels. However, after 2001’s Jurassic Park III, the franchise was dead for 14 years. 2015’s Jurassic World was another massive success and revived the franchise, leading to yet another trilogy.

The Jurassic World movies have expanded on the world that was developed throughout the first three films. While they have not all been loved by audiences and critics, their impressive box office achievements have proven that the Jurassic World franchise is here to stay. The upcoming Jurassic World Rebirth will start yet another new era in the long-running franchise. The cast of Jurassic World Rebirth includes Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey. With this star power, Jurassic World Rebirth will likely be a smashing success at the box office, which could lead to several more Jurassic World movies.

All 3 Jurassic World Movies Grossed Over A Billion At The Box Office

The Jurassic World Series Has Been A Financial Success

The three original Jurassic Park movies performed quite well at the box office. The very first Jurassic Park movie has even made close to $1 billion at the worldwide box office (this includes its multiple re-releases). However, all the Jurassic World movies have outgrossed the Jurassic Park films at the box office. 2015’s Jurassic World made over $1.6 billion, 2018’s Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom made over $1.3 billion, and 2022’s Jurassic World Dominion just crossed the $1 billion mark.

Even though each movie in the Jurassic World trilogy made less than its predecessor, all of them making over $1 billion at the box office is still extremely impressive. The downward trend in the box office earnings of the Jurassic World series suggests that the next movie, Jurassic World Rebirth, will make under $1 billion. However, Jurassic World Rebirth is an exciting new start for the franchise, so it is possible that the hype around the movie will ensure it grosses over $1 billion.

Even Jurassic World’s Worst-Received Movies Did Great At The Box Office

The Jurassic World Movies Were Not All Critical Successes

Similar to their box office earnings, review scores for each movie in the Jurassic World series were significantly lower than the film that came before. The first Jurassic World movie was a long-awaited legacy sequel, and managed to entertain audiences with its story set in a theme park focused on dinosaurs. However, its sequels, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and Jurassic World Dominion, did not impress longtime fans of the franchise.

Even if Jurassic World Rebirth doesn’t receive amazing reviews, it will still likely make a lot of money at the box office.

While the first Jurassic World movie has a solid score of 72% on Rotten Tomatoes, Fallen Kingdom and Dominion have 47% and 29%, respectively. Even though Jurassic World Dominion received horrible reviews upon its release, it still managed to make over $1 billion at the box office, which proves that fans are still eager to watch new Jurassic World movies. Therefore, even if Jurassic World Rebirth doesn’t receive amazing reviews, it will still likely make a lot of money at the box office.

Jurassic World Rebirth’s Success Would Mean At Least 2 More Jurassic Movies

Jurassic World Rebirth Could Set Up Several More Movies

Right now, the Jurassic World franchise can be divided quite nicely into two trilogies: the three original Jurassic Park movies and the three Jurassic World films. The upcoming film subtitled Rebirth is technically the fourth movie in the Jurassic World series, but it will act as a fresh start for the franchise. Jurassic World Rebirth is not going to retcon anything from the previous movies, but it will likely be focused on paving a path forward for the franchise.

Jurassic World Rebirth Can Be The Best In The Franchise Since The Original And This Monster Movie With 76% On RT Proves It

With Godzilla’s Gareth Edwards at the helm, Jurassic World Rebirth has the chance to be the franchise’s best movie since the original Jurassic Park.

It is more than likely that Jurassic World Rebirth will set up potential sequels. Therefore, if it manages to make as much as the previous Jurassic World movies at the box office, then it is almost a guarantee that at least two more Jurassic World movies will be made afterwards. After 2022’s Dominion, it is clear that Universal Pictures does not want to say goodbye to the Jurassic World series, so it is likely that the distribution company will be actively trying to continue it with several more films following the release of Jurassic World Rebirth.
