Synopsis

This summer, experience the epic conclusion to the Jurassic era as two generations unite for the first time. Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are joined by Oscar®-winner Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill in Jurassic World Dominion, a bold, timely and breathtaking new adventure that spans the globe. From Jurassic World architect and director Colin Trevorrow, Dominion takes place four years after Isla Nublar has been destroyed. Dinosaurs now live—and hunt—alongside humans all over the world. This fragile balance will reshape the future and determine, once and for all, whether human beings are to remain the apex predators on a planet they now share with history’s most fearsome creatures. Jurassic World Dominion, from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment, propels the more than $5 billion franchise into daring, uncharted territory, featuring never-seen dinosaurs, breakneck action and astonishing new visual effects.

The film features new cast members DeWanda Wise (She’s Gotta Have It), Emmy nominee Mamoudou Athie (Archive 81), Dichen Lachman (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Scott Haze (Minari) and Campbell Scott (The Amazing Spider-Man 2). The film’s returning cast includes BD Wong as Dr. Henry Wu, Justice Smith as Franklin Webb, Daniella Pineda as Dr. Zia Rodriguez and Omar Sy as Barry Sembenè. Jurassic World Dominion is directed by Colin Trevorrow, who steered 2015’s Jurassic World to a record-shattering $1.7 billion global box office. The screenplay is by Emily Carmichael (Battle at Big Rock) & Colin Trevorrow from a story by Derek Connolly (Jurassic World) & Trevorrow, based on characters created by Michael Crichton. Jurassic World Dominion is produced by acclaimed franchise producers Frank Marshall p.g.a. and Patrick Crowley p.g.a. and is executive produced by legendary, Oscar®-winning franchise creator Steven Spielberg, Alexandra Derbyshire and Colin Trevorrow.

Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment present, in association with Perfect World Pictures, a Colin Trevorrow film.

Plot

BERING SEA
80 Miles West of Alaska

In the Bering Sea, the fishing trawler Sada is capsized by the Mosasaurus, still freely roaming the oceans.

In a NowThis News segment entitled 'Dinosaurs in our World', Gemma Zhao reports from Big Rock National Park that a growing black market in the dinosaur trade has developed in the 4 years since the Isla Nublar Crisis. BioSyn Genetics has been awarded the sole global collection rights by the US Congress, and has constructed BioSyn Valley, a massive sanctuary for dinosaurs in the Italian Dolomites. Though CEO Lewis Dodgson maintains that he only wants to study the dinosaurs for their unique pharmaceutical properties, many question the billions of dollars in revenue that the dinosaurs are making for BioSyn. A global manhunt is also underway for Maisie Lockwood, the genetic clone of the late Charlotte Lockwood.

SAW RIDGE CATTLE CO.
Nevada

In the dead of night, Claire Dearing and Zia Rodriguez break into a Cattle Ranch in Saw Ridge, Nevada. They discover numerous infant Nasutoceratops in captivity and gather video evidence so that the Department of Fish and Wildlife can shut the ranch down. Finding one of the infants, isolated and in poor health, they return it to their van where Franklin Webb is waiting. Escaping the ranch, they are pursued by several armed vehicles but are saved by a pair of adult Nasutoceratops.

The next morning, Claire begins to plan another raid on the ranch for the following evening, but both Zia and Franklin resign, reaffirming their belief in the cause but asserting that there must be a better way to influence change.

SIERRA NEVADA MOUNTAINS

In the snowy mountains of Sierra Nevada, Owen Grady now works as a dinosaur wrangler, working with others to round up the escaped animals including a herd of Parasaurolophus. Unbeknownst to Grady, poacher Rainn Delacourt observes him from afar.

Orphaned Maisie Lockwood is now living with Claire and Owen who act as her surrogate parents. Fearful of what might happen if others discover her, they keep her hidden at their cabin though Maisie frequently sneaks into the nearby town where she encounters the dinosaurs that she herself set free. Back at the cabin, both Owen and Claire find themselves at odds with Maisie who is struggling with the restrictions on her freedom.

Unbeknownst to the group, the Velociraptor Blue is observing them from nearby and has made a nest for herself in an abandoned school bus. Returning to her nest she discovers Beta, a genetic clone she has produced through parthenogenesis, has hatched and takes her out for her first hunt.

WEST TEXAS

The Peréz Farm is attacked by a swarm of massive Locusts who devour the crop fields. Paleobotanist Ellie Sattler investigates the incident with students from her university discovering that though the Peréz' fields were completely wiped out, neighbouring fields using BioSyn seed were left untouched.

UTAH

At a dig site in Utah, Alan Grant lectures students on the nature of paleontology. He is interrupted by the arrival of Ellie Sattler. Catching up, she reveals that is now divorced from Mark Degler, and with both of her children in college, she is free to live the 'Alan Grant life'. She has Grant inspect a Locust captured at the Peréz Farm which he deduces has prehistoric DNA. Explaining her theory that they came from BioSyn, she asks Grant to accompany her to BioSyn Valley on an invitation from Ian Malcolm who is working as BioSyn's in house philosopher.

US WILDLIFE RELOCATION FACILITY
Pennsylvania

At a depot in Pennysylvannia, the Department of Fish & Wildlife prepare to ship many species of captured dinosaur over seas to BioSyn Valley including the Tyrannosaurus, Rexy. Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler arrive and are greeted by Shira, DFW ranger who walks them through their operation before the animals are handed off to BioSyn. Sattler plays with with an infant Nasutoceratops, surprised at how wondrous she still finds the experience. They depart on a BioSyn plane for the Dolomites.

Back at the cabin in Sierra Nevada, Maisie encounters Beta.
