Fans of the blockbuster Jurassic World franchise may soon have a glimpse of what’s next. Following the success of Jurassic World: Rebirth, which grossed over $869 million worldwide in 2025 against a $200 million budget, speculation is mounting about a potential sequel. Now, a possible title has surfaced: Jurassic World: Liberation.
The buzz began when several domain names associated with the title – including jurassicworldliberation.movie and jurassicworldliberation.com – were reportedly acquired and now redirect to the official Jurassic World website, jurassicworld.com. While this doesn’t confirm a sequel is officially in development, it has ignited excitement among dedicated fans eager for another adventure. It’s important to note, however, that these domain registrations could serve as placeholder names until a final decision is made.
Jurassic World: Rebirth, directed by Gareth Edwards, marked a significant achievement despite a compressed production schedule. Edwards joined the project relatively late, stepping in after the script was completed by David Koepp, the writer behind the original Jurassic Park and its sequel, The Lost World. The film received a nomination for a Visual Effects Society (VFX) Oscar, recognizing its impressive special effects.
Sequel Discussions and Potential Return of Key Cast
Reports emerged in November suggesting that Universal Pictures is considering a sequel to Rebirth, with plans to bring back stars Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali. Edwards is also reportedly being eyed to return as director, with a tentative release targeted for June 2028. However, Universal has not yet officially confirmed these plans.
Johansson’s current filming commitments may present a scheduling challenge. She is currently working on Mike Flanagan’s upcoming film, “The Exorcist,” and is slated to appear in Matt Reeves’ “The Batman: Part II” following that project.
Domain Acquisition Fuels Speculation
The acquisition of the “Jurassic World: Liberation” domain names was first reported by the Jurassic Park fansite Swrve. The redirection of these domains to the official franchise website suggests a deliberate move, though Universal has remained tight-lipped about its intentions. It’s a common practice for studios to secure potential titles early in the development process, even if those titles ultimately aren’t used.
Edwards previously discussed the challenges of joining Jurassic World: Rebirth so close to the start of production, noting it was a similar timeframe to his early work on “Monsters.” He typically has a much longer pre-production period, as seen with films like “Godzilla,” “Rogue One,” and “The Creator.”
What’s Next for the Jurassic Franchise?
While a sequel remains unconfirmed, the interest in continuing the Jurassic World saga is clearly present. The success of Rebirth, coupled with the potential return of its leading actors and director, suggests that Universal is seriously considering expanding the franchise. For now, fans will have to wait for an official announcement regarding the future of the series. Preserve checking back for updates as more information becomes available.
