“It’s quite a daunting task” – Director of ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ Teases Iconic Score Revival With New Composer

Binger

Jurassic World Rebirth

, directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp, is stomping its way toward us like a hungry T Rex at a buffet. But let us talk sound—because without it, even a raptor chase looks like an awkward dance rehearsal. Picture a T-Rex bursting through trees… with the soundtrack of a rubber duck. Or a velociraptor hissing… in autotune. Tragic? Hilarious? Both. Word on Isla Nublar is, the director is summoning back the legendary score, with a fresh twist. But… what exactly are we about to hear?

Much like the dinosaurs they bring to life, the Jurassic World Rebirth

team is evolving—this time, without Michael Giacchino’s musical magic guiding the roar.

Jurassic World Rebirth: When the composer evolves, so does the roar

Alexandre Desplat revealed to Entertainment Weekly

that he will be composing the score for Jurassic World Rebirth

, hitting theaters on July 2. “Every score John Williams has written has become an iconic score, so it is quite a daunting task,”

Desplat said. Williams, who created the unforgettable Jurassic Park

theme in 1993, made dinosaurs sound like they were part of an epic symphony. Director Gareth Edwards added that Desplat’s score gave him “chills.”

Desplat, known for The Shape of Water

and Harry Potter

, admitted that while excitement came first, panic quickly followed—how do you follow a musical legend whose tunes could probably tame a T-Rex?

Alexandre Desplat revealed that while he wanted to honor John Williams’ iconic Jurassic Park

tunes, he also had to find his groove in Jurassic World Rebirth

. The film follows Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) on a dino-rescue mission. Desplat joked about weaving in Williams’ themes while balancing the task of creating something fresh with a “105-piece orchestra and a 60-piece choir.”

With these elements and others in place, Jurassic World Rebirth

may finally recapture the magic of Steven Spielberg’s 1993 classic

Jurassic World Rebirth

is set to do something the previous films could not—reignite the awe and magic of Steven Spielberg’s 1993 Jurassic Park

. Director Gareth Edwards promises to take us back to the basics, filming on real locations in Southeast Asia, as revealed in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, and Malta. Ditching excessive CGI for practical effects, Edwards aims to evoke the suspense and tension that made the original so gripping. Think fewer blue screens, more breathtaking vistas, and a story with new characters that echo the raw, simpler thrills of Spielberg’s classic. A true “love letter”

to the master of suspense!

Jurassic World Rebirth

is channeling the tension of the original Jurassic Park,

with director Gareth Edwards facing venomous snakes, deadly spiders, and ocean stunts for a truly immersive experience. Along with new sound composer Alexandre Desplat, who is bringing fresh yet nostalgic elements, Rebirth

aims to recapture the magic that made Steven Spielberg’s 1993 classic unforgettable. Meanwhile, Marvel earlier chose to cast DeWanda Wise

, Jurassic World’s

star, as Storm. With high stakes, real-world challenges, and a nod to the past, Rebirth

could very well become the most thrilling entry since the original film.
