Gareth Edwards May Direct that New “Jurassic World” Movie

If you haven’t seen the absolutely stunning film “The Creator,” you need to. From the same director who brought us “Godzilla” (2014) and “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” it really feels like Gareth Edwards is just getting warmed up. Seriously.

His possible involvement in Universal Studios’ upcoming NEW “Jurassic World” film is probably one of the only things that would get us interested in yet another entry into that franchise. Which brings us to today’s news- Edwards is reportedly circling the project, following the exit of David Leitch mere days after he was announced as helming the project.

Some outlets are now claiming Leitch left “Jurassic World” due to the lack of creative input he’d get to have on the film, as it’s currently in super fast-track status with a July 2nd, 2025 release date. [Like…Universal KNOWS how long it takes to shoot and edit a dinosaur film, right? Because that date doesn’t seem likely.] Reports indicate the studio is just looking for someone to step up and hand in a finished product, with *checks notes* no announced cast, a script with several writers and revisions, and no production start date.

This is not a done deal yet, but, it could be great if Universal lets Edwards do his own thing.

We’ll let you know what we hear about this and other news.
