Does ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ have a post-credit scene?
Jurassic World Rebirth is in cinemas now, but does the new dinosaur thriller have a post-credits scene? Read on to find out.
The film is a standalone sequel to 2022’s Jurassic World Dominion and the seventh instalment overall in the Jurassic Park franchise and it arrived in cinemas worldwide on Wednesday (July 2).
Based on a screenplay by David Koepp, who co-wrote the original 1993 film, Rebirth is directed by Gareth Edwards (Monsters, Godzilla, Rogue One).
Set five years after the events of Dominion, it tells the story of a pharmaceutical company who hire a covert-ops specialist Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) to lead an expedition to a quarantined island that once hosted Jurassic Park experiments.
Mahershala Ali plays Zora’s team leader Duncan, while Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo and Ed Skrein co-star.
The film’s first critical reactions praised the “majestic” new film as “a perfect entry into the franchise”, while in March, Johansson revealed she refused to join Instagram to promote the film, having previously said she felt too “fragile” to use the platform.
In a three-star review of Jurassic World Rebirth, NME wrote: “Action and acting, then, all good. Unfortunately – and bizarrely, given screenwriter David Koepp co-wrote the original Jurassic Park among other great blockbusters – the dialogue throughout Jurassic World Rebirth is very patchy, as if his first draft script made it to the screen. Maybe the shoot was rushed, maybe the sign-off process wasn’t as tightly managed as these things should be, but it makes the entire film feel slightly odd. It’s a shame as this downgrades a very entertaining film to an average one.”
Does Jurassic World Rebirth have a post-credit scene?
The 133-minute film picks up some years after the conclusion of Dominion and brings us into a world that has grown weary of the appeal of dinosaurs. Those few that remain living among the human population are dying out, and the one place on Earth in which they thrive is a band around the Equator where all human travel is outlawed.
The film follows Johansson, Ali, Bailey and Friend’s characters into the quarantine zone on a mission to extract dino DNA for the benefit of the pharmaceutical company for which Friend’s character works.
As such, the film operates primarily as a standalone film, with little by way of shared narrative with the previous Jurassic World films, nor does it directly throw forward to future instalments.
As a result, the film does not include any post-credit scenes.
